I want to create a poll on the facebook wall. Is it possible to do?

For some reason the creation of "questions" (aka polls) is not available yet in the API. If you want you should log a bug at developers.facebook.com/bugs and mark it as a wishlist item.

As far as I know it isn't possible.
You can only read questions with => "HTTP GET request to the /USER_ID/questions endpoint with the user_questions or friends_questions permissions"
...but I haven't tested it yet.

You can try one of many pre made poll apps, like this, just search for polls at the top in the apps, then install them on your page http://www.facebook.com/mypoll.page .
Another way would be to make an app that does the job, I have created apps before to add tabs to Facebook, you can put whatever you want on them then like a poll. Im not 100% how to post it to your wall without digging some more, but the example I posted above shows the poll posted on the wall.

How can I update/add unlockables into my app without an update? [closed]

I need to add unlockables to my application, but the problem is that I don't want to have to send out an update every time that I want to add something new. I have read a bit about servers and JSON and XML. I just wanted to check to see if anybody else had a better idea?
If you are talking about something like a logo change then, short of an app update, the only option you have is getting it from an outside source such as a server transmission. But now you are talking about in-app purchases which, if you have not already, should read up on.

Server based image and/or text transmissions are easily done and if I understand your last comment correctly, these updates would not be very frequent anyway.

I have searched a lot to find a way to implement the most used pull over menu when I press a button in xcode for iPhone. Something like what you see when you hit the reply button in email app. You see options to Reply, Forward, Print, Cancel. I wanted to implement it exactly the same way. Is there a standard framework already available in iOS6?
Many thanks for the excellent users of stackoverflow.
Below is the screen shot that I wanted to implement.
This is a UIActionSheet
Please look at Apple's doc

How do you use the reddit API to get the title/upvotes/op of a post using IOS? Is it even possible or do I have to parse the HTML? I have already parsed the front page but the posts I get don't match the desktop version at all. I feel there must be an easier way to access this information.
You sort of answered this yourself. Use the Reddit API, request the information you want and parse the JSON that's returned from the API. Specific community support found here but be sure to try and solve your problems by searching first.
You'll find a wealth of information on parsing JSON on StackOverflow, including examples specific to your language.
You can easily get the front page JSON by requesting: http://reddit.com/.json to start with.

I am developing an app that allows users to post to walls/groups very much like facebook or a classic forum. I really like the way you can post a link on facebook and the link will be recognized as a video, pic, or other media and will automatically display. Its a great feature b/c it keeps users on facebook instead of leaving the site. On that note, I was looking to implement something similar for my the app I am developing. Are there any rails plugins/gems that do this kind of thing?
Yes, I know how to google and have done so. I realize that I could write regular expressions to scan the link and then take an according action. However, I am looking for an existing implementation to save a boat load of time.
Any and all input would be appreciated.
Existing implementations would probably be employing some form of regular expression, although another approach is using custom "Markdown" syntax or BB code to make the regular expression easier.

I'm getting started building a site with Rails and I would like people to be able to vote certain things with the options of "yes" or "no" or "right" or "wrong". I would also like there to be a running tally computed by percent (maybe below). Could someone tell me how I can add this functionality?
Thanks
I just finished up something similar.
If you'd like to see how other people have tackled this problem, just search github. There are 30 ruby repos.
I found acts_as_voteable the most helpful.
Remember to build it in such a way that enforces: "one vote for one IP address". Other than that, it is straight forward and plain Mathematics.
You should also take a look at 'counters' in the API, such that each vote has a value and the tallies are kept on the voted-on object (so it doesn't have to run a count every single time).
