What were your thoughts on Acre (Freebase's app platform)?

bkudria3• 17 years ago

I didn't look into it too much - I was wanted to do it in Ruby and try out Heroku.

In the future I might consider building the app with ACRE - it looks rather interesting.

This is great. The link to tickets for Fantastic Mr. Fox is broken right now: http://www.fandango.com/fantasticmr$002Efox_109297nu/movieov... Looks like it's a Freebase bug escaping the title properly, though, not on your end. (edit: It's that 'nu' at the end of the movie url fragment that does it, which appears to come directly from freebase)

Thanks for catching this, Cory. I've updated the Freebase DB, it'll take a bit to freshen the caches. I probably ought to convert back the $FFFF codes from FB, although it seems to work fine...
