So after some solid work over the course of this summer I'm now happy to say that The Facebook Project Wiki is operational. I've begun to outline items and will need help flushing it out. I will turn it over to the community soon.
Help me build the Wiki!
I also added a guide to the excerpts from my interview project, containing portions of 10 of the 26 interviews, organized by topic and question. Researchers can use it to harvest user perspectives and quotes or as an already completed set of interview data that covers a variety of topics.

Beyond this I've released nearly all of my data for public use, read the documentation before you use anything:

Hope it's helpful. If anyone would be interested in helping to write Guides let me know!

About the Facebook Project

Originally started as a sociology research project by Jeff Ginger, a graduate student at the University of Illinois, the Facebook Project includes several researchers, students, librarians, and enthusiasts who all have an important interest in common: Facebook.
The endeavor is a collaborative research effort dedicated to documenting, understanding, and utilizing the social networking service Facebook.com.
