So, as you may have seen, these facebook "liking sites" are becoming ever more popular. I am wondering how to build one. Help would be appreciated, because I have no idea where to start.
I'm looking for a site where at the top you can post something you like, then others can like it.
Thanks!
With the amount being created there has to be some step by step tutorial out there.

That's what I figured, but I've been searching for a while and haven't found anything yet.
Try this, not sure if it's what you need but it might help: [URL]http://developers.facebook.com/?ref=pf[/URL]
We have enough of them.
I wrote one of these a while ago.
I did it in Ruby and went full on NoSQL with it. I hated the experience.
You could probably get away with a generic blog site that supports searching. And just stick a Facebook "Like" link in each post. Creating a new blog post for every page you create or find in Facebook. It's probably how half those sites function.
Why on earth would you even bother making one is the question? They are useless and a waste of space.

Do you think you could help me out a little then? I honestly have no idea where to start.
I usually make websites using flash (actionscript), PHP, and html.

[quote=http://developers.facebook.com/docs/guides/web] Social Plugins
Social plugins are the easiest way to get started with Facebook Platform. The plugins are embeddable social features that can be integrated in your site with a line of HTML. Because they are hosted by Facebook, the plugins are personalized for all users who are logged into Facebook — even if the users haven't yet signed up for your site.
The most important social plugin is the Like button, which enables users to post pages from your site back to their Facebook profile with one click. You can add a Like button to any page with an iframe tag:
[code]<iframe src="http://www.facebook.com/widgets/like.php?href=http://example.com"
scrolling="no" frameborder="0"
style="border:none; width:450px; height:80px"></iframe>
[/code]

I've seen that before, and it's useful, but not in this case.
I think there's meta tags you need to put on the page, as [URL="http://www.x0x.in/like.php?id=51"]looking at a page like this[/URL], I see:
[html]
<meta property="og:title" content="I wish I Could Own FACEBOOK"/>
<meta property="og:image" content="http://likeportal.com/images/questions_icon.png" />
<meta property="fb:admins" content="100000736141599" />
<meta property="og:site_name" content="<3<3 Like It <3<3" />
<meta property="og:type" content="website" />
<meta property="og:url" content="http://x0x.in/"/>
<link rel="shortcut icon" href="http://www.x0x.in/images/sitelogo.png" />
<link rel="image_src" href="http://www.x0x.in/images/fb.png" />
[/html]
Although there's probably more, like how there's also a fb connect javascript or something (I think that's just for the like button)
Load it with malware, then set it to someone dumbasses will visit, like it yourself, bam, you profit.
I can give you one for free i made. Here is an example

They're not completely useless. They're good for generating traffic
