We've started preparing and publishing a set of tutorials which would help people get a deeper and better understanding of "what" and "how" they can do using Dolphin.
At this stage, we have started with the first one under the title: "How to build "Facebook Clone" using Dolphin".
The tutorial contains a general set of recommendations and directives using common sense, while some of the other details in this might require a very specific and individual approach.

I wonder if facebook sent them a threatening letter...

Good idea! Will do.
For performance, we are adding a new tutorial today. For "Ping" thing, not too sure what you mean, a sound alert for new messages?

I will say, in the 40+ years I have been around programming and computers, I have NEVER seen a program that didn't have bugs. It is guaranteed that if there is a program, there will be see more
