I just found out about Facebook Offers, which seem pretty interesting. I know how to create one, my question is, once created, does it have a permanent link? I want to link to this Facebook Offer from a link inside my blog.
Thanks
Themos
Yes, it creates a permanent link.
As an example, here's a permanent link to a Facebook Offer by a bagel shop.
When you create an offer it does get a permanent serialized link that you can share outside of Facebook (hence the Sharing utility). According to this Facebook documentation you can stop an offer and the link will still be available/visible but no one can claim the offer. You can delete the offer and the permanent link will most likely 404.

For more information and a detailed look at Facebook Offers I found this blog entry helpful.

I'm looking for an authoritative source on which browsers people browse facebook with. Specifically, I'm curious what percent IE6 and IE7 are at.
I constantly run into issues with IE7 on Facebook, and am trying to determine if it's worth my time to search for solutions.
I doubt if Facebook would release that private information.
You could use your own web server's log files (the server that hosts your facebook app) and get stats from those files. But I presume, you don't have access to those. So you might be able to make a guess by checking out the global stats here: http://www.w3counter.com/globalstats.php or http://www.w3schools.com/browsers/browsers_stats.asp
EDIT
Some information from a hosting company about its Facebook stats. However, this information is from 2009. :|
https://www.facebook.com/note.php?note_id=94523840758
Facebook has announced they are dropping support for IE7 (they already no longer support IE6). They have not announced numbers as far as I know. I doubt it will be worth it for you to support it as well for your Facebook app.

This morning dynamically generated links to FB pages from our app stopped working. Link to a page like this http://www.facebook.com/pages/125567350861413 used to work just fine, now it requires page name http://www.facebook.com/pages/Daniels-Real-Estate/125567350861413
Why would this be changed? Was there a problem with old pages link format?
We tweaked our code to take into account page name and made it work. But if a user changes the name of a page the link to this page will break, until we refresh the list of pages in our db. We'll write a chron job that will refresh the list of page names for all users using our app multiple times a day, but we'd prefer not having to do that.
Anyone else ran into this issue? What was your workaround (other than the above)?
While this is probably an off-topic question, you can get the page url using the graph api:
http://graph.facebook.com/125567350861413 and looking at the link property. As to why Facebook changed this, you would have to ask them at their developer group or log a bug.

How do I go about either making, or retrieving facebook short url's (fb.me) from a page, profile, event etc? I want to update my url shortener site - but if the user links to a facebook page I want to just return a fb.me link instead. Does facebook make their short urls on the fly, or does each page automatically already have one?
Facebook uses Bit.ly's services to shorten links from their site. While pages that have a username turns into "fb.me/<username>", other links associated with Facebook turns into "on.fb.me/*****". To you use the on.fb.me service, just use your Bit.ly account. Note that if you change the default link shortener on your Bit.ly account to j.mp from bit.ly this service won't work.
You can use bit.ly api to create facebook short urls find the documentation here
http://api.bitly.com
I'm not aware of any way to programmatically create these URLs, but the existing username space (www.facebook.com/something) works on fb.me also (e.g. http://fb.me/facebook )

Their wall and their posts to other friends?
It's largely based on what the user allows you to see. You would at most get access to the User table and the standard user info table. You should also look at the Users.getInfo() method
You can get a treasure of information, depending on the permissions your users grant you (as was mention in a previous answer).
You can get a pretty good idea of what you can do from this page: http://developers.facebook.com/docs/reference/api/
The Following link guide you who you can do with facebook user(me) whole information is there if you now about the PHP SDK or any other SDK provided by facebook.

The problem is that AdSense has to crawl your pages to make suitable ads. If I have dynamic content or user-generated content, then AdSense is not suitable. How can I modify my site so that it is accessible to the Adsense crawlers, or should I approach the problem of monetizing my site from another angle?
does your content require a login?
If not then theres no reason Google can't crawl it. Just because its dynamic or user generated doesnt mean google can't see it.
If it doesn't require a login and Google still cant crawl your site, then you have done something wrong and your site is not SEO'd very well in the first place.
As far as other ad networks go, heres a few off the top of my head
Burst Media
ValueClick Media
Casale Media.
Though keep in mind these are usually much harder to join then Adsense.
