On October 10th, one of the longest running tech rumors in recent memory finally came to fruition: Facebook released its own, official iPad application. The app had been in high demand since the day the iPad first launched (Facebook's iPhone app is, after all, among the platform's most popular of all time). But there was no iPad app available on launch day. Nor was there one the day the iPad 2 came out. But that didn't stop people from heading to the app store and typing 'Facebook'. In the mean time, some enterprising entrepreneurs took the opportunity to launch their own, unofficial Facebook iPad apps ? which millions of people wound up downloading. One of these is MyPad (formerly called FacePad), which has seen strong growth since it first launched in January, offering access to Facebook features like Photos, News Feed, and Chat ?�with an interface that's slicker than the web version of the site. The app has steadily improved since then, and recently introduced its iPhone application. Source: http://feedproxy.google.com/~r/Techcrunch/~3/BYMjDZk5iOA/
