Facedump was a Cocoa application for developers using the Facebook API to inspect the data returned by it. It was effectively a desktop clone of the API Test Console, though it was developed prior to the console's release for my own personal use. One difference from the web-based console was that Facedump returned the actual data your app gets, and the user IDs it provided are exactly those that your application receives. This has since become irrelevant as the API returns the same IDs as are used throughout the site.
In addition, it is able to parse XML file lists of users as input for the users.getInfo API call.
As platform and my experience with it developed, the need for this application has diminished. The test console is now much more powerful than Facedump could ever hope to be, and even I personally have not used the application in months.
