Facebook for Android

[nickmgray]

Many of you might have already read the storey on the front page about how there may not be a Facebook App coming to Android any time soon. If you have not read it, you can find it here: http://androidcommunity.com/android-...-app-20081023/

As we all know, there is a Myspace App already. But lets face reality, we all installed the Myspace App, checked a few things and then closed it. I used it for no more than 5 minutes, but I've spent at least 30 minutes today on Facebook through the web browser on my G1 today. Having a Facebook App would enhance the usability of the site a lot.

I started a Facebook Group to help rally G1 users together in support for a Andorid Facebook App. If you would liek to join, the name of the group is: "Android Facebook App" If anyone want to photoshop a little graphic for the group logo. Maybe a Facebook App Icon on an Android desktop or a facebook logo on he G1.

Facebook could take advantage of a lot of the features the Android platform has to offer. They could create a Facebook phonebook ofr contacts that you may not have in your Gmail account, they could update your status indicating your location on Google maps since the G1 has GPS, and a lot more.
