If lots of apps are failing then I guess the network might be to blame. Facebook doesn't give apps long to respond to requests... anything more than 5 or 6 seconds and you get the kind of error you are seeing above. Second Friends did go thru a bad patch in terms of response time, largely because I hadn't thought thru my algorithms properly when I first coded it... but since then it has been fine (at least up until the last time I checked it - this morning). So not sure what is happening :-( Shame, especially in the case of Second Friends which is my app! :-)
