Facebook today launched their developer toolset Facebook Platform for integrating applications into the site.  Watch for a LendList application that lets you share possessions amongst your facebook network of friends and groups.  All the benefits of LendList but with your existing Facebook Network.  Sign up for LendList and you’ll get an email when the integration option is complete.

Our hosting company upgraded us this morning to a newer, faster and more reliable server. However, they did so during the weekly LendList.org update, so the update was sent from both the old and new servers. I apologize if you received the update twice.

I recently got back from backpacking around Peru and Ecuador. Before the trip I looked at buying a telephoto lense to capture closeups of the animals I expected to see on the Galapagos Islands. The lense I wanted was priced at about $800 locally and $600 on the internet.

However, I was able to find a LendLister with a zoom lense that would do the trick. It made all the difference in the world in terms of my photos. See the results below. I gave him an extra compact flash card as a thanks, got the photos I wanted and saved at least $600. Thanks Makana!
