Answer 1

You shouldn't refer to blog posts which are 3 years old. The graph API has changed a lot since then.

Only Canvas games are currently allowed to use the invite friends API.

The invitable_friends API is only available for games that have a Facebook Canvas app implementation. This API is only available on version 2.0 (or later) of the Graph API.
