Using fb.api calls with jquery deferred

I just cannot get my head around deferred objects

dfd = new $.Deferred();
FB.api('/me/posts?fields=id,story&access_token='+accessToken,function(response){          
    dfd.resolve();  
    //Do something with the result  
});
dfd.done(alert(dfd.isDeferred()));

From my understanding the .done should only fire once the request is completed and the callback sets the object as resolved, however the alert box is firing false before the request completes.

What am I missing?

Try changing the last line of code to :

dfd.done(function(){ alert(dfd.isDeferred()); });

This is how the use of the done() function is documented in the jQuery API
