I have developed a new Facebook Application and wanted to post something about that.
Name of the Facebook App: GeoBing
Description: Use the GeoBing App to share your location on Facebook using Microsoft's Latest Bing Maps. Your Profile would get updated with your current location and map.
Importance: GeoBing Facebook Application is the world's first innovative way to share your Geographical Location over Facebook using Bing Maps. You can even do it from your Laptop and Desktop Browsers.!!
GeoBing FaceBook Link: http://apps.facebook.com/geobing/?ref=ts
Steps to use:

Step 2: When prompted, allow your location to be shared to see Geolocation in action
Step 3: When you see your Location information on the Map below, Click 'Post to Facebook' button on the bottom.

Changing location of %temp% folder
As we all know that Windows maintains a location where programs can put temporary files. But at times you might want to change that location. Changing this location might cause some installed Application to behave abnormally. But who the geek like you cares!!
The step is pretty simple. And really this is of help to Testing guys who want to test what is its impact over their applications. Although this can be done manually too using a simple batch script, I am telling the manual method. This clearly explains the method.
Go to Windows Command Prompt, (Start->Run->Type cmd and press Enter).Type SET followed by the Enter key. Windows will list a number of what are called "environment variables" that make various types of information available to running programs. Two of them will look much like this:
TEMP=C:\DOCUME~1\Anwar\LOCALS~1\Temp
TMP=C:\DOCUME~1\Anwar\LOCALS~1\Temp
The DOCUME~1 represents the Documents and Settings folder.
TMP and TEMP both specify the directory to be used for temporary files. Both TMP and TEMP are used for compatibility reasons. You can even edit it here or can change by following method.
Right click on My Computer and click on Properties. In the resulting dialog click on the Advanced tab. Click on the button abeled Environment Variables. The TMP and TEMP is listed in the section labeled User variables. You can edit these path to any desired location and Apply this setting.
