New Facebook Worm?

I got this mail from Facebook today, notifying about a new private message:

---

*** sent you a message.

Subject: Hi my friend.

"This is you on hidden cam. lol:
http://myvideo.d9.pl/"

---

The site is currently giving a page in polish, but no malware or exploit whatsoever. It probably went down.

The message did not appear in my Facebook's private messages list nor in the notifications, which means that Facebook somehow deleted it from their database.

Beware.

The Semester is dead. Long live the Semester!

Semester 1A and its exams ended, and the new semester is beginning on Sunday.

This means I've got some spare time to do stuff beside sitting in my room and looking at some papers, so here are some updates on the upcoming projects I'm planning to work on:

iWC - I've decided to discontinue the project, because I've found out this application which allows you to control Winamp, Windows Media Player or iTunes using an iPhone web application. It seems that programming a web application specifically for the iPhone can replace most native applications, and you should give it a try.

However, I'm planning to release the Python Winamp module of iWC, which enables communication with Winamp 5+. I still need to document and refactor it a bit, so I hope I'll be able to release it this upcoming week.

iPhone Synchronization - I'm planning to enhance the currently available iTunes-iPhone synchronization. I know, there are some products which allow better synchronizing, but they cost money, and they are not modular and open-source.

Currently, the main features I'm planning are Facebook synchronization (fetch friends pictures, phone numbers, addresses, websites and so on) and better Outlook integration (such as notes and to-do synchronization). If you have any other ideas, please send me an email or leave a comment.

Smart-Home - I wonder if I shall start working on an embedded project to connect some switches / electronic devices to the wireless network at our apartment in Jerusalem. If you know a cheap wifi microcontroller, please leave a message.

Suggestion for a new Facebook API function

After I got a message from a 16 years old girl (does she knows how to write?), I thought about a new function that facebook applications should use:

def is_legit(filrting_girl_age):
    if self.age / 2 + 7 > flirting_girl_age:
        print "What the hell were you thinking!"
        return wtf
    else:
        print "All is good, you can go now!"
        return true
