And of course I'd only use it for legit content
Yes. Im out of invites for the moment.
If anyone can hook me up with a Demonoid invite I got invites for TvTorrents, PDA4X and Google Wave...
I saw this on the market, I hadn't seen it before so I don't know whether it is new or it has just been updated but there are no reviews of it and I can't read the website so I'm not sure what to think of this app really.
http://www.cyrket.com/package/oms.sns.facebook
I haven't purchased it so I don't know if it is any good. Have any of you guys seen this before?
Thanks,
Simon.
Yeah it is new as I just noticed it as well. Anyone wanna take the dive and purchase and post impressions?
hmm based on that one review doesn't seem good :/
probably just another mobile facebook wrapper.
I emailed the Dev, asked him if it's a native app using FB's APIs or a wrapper, and asked for screenshots.
We'll see what he says.
Got a reply:
From Email said:
Hi Jordan,
Mobile Facebook is a native application, not by Browser, which using Facebook APIs,
FBook is a Browser,
Our application is totle different from FBook, we can access Facebook very fast, and also enable user access wall message, phonebook, friends information,
Enable you upload photo, video to Facebook,
Show news feed,
We will find a website to show more information about Mobile Facebook.
Thanks your mails
Regards
Huadong

He sent me a ton of screenshots of the app in use. Screenshot attachments continue in the next post.
Continued screenshots.
Conclusion: The app doesn't look as pretty as Bloo does, but it looks far more powerful and integrated. I don't know if it's worth the $3.50, though.
I like Babbler myself. The first true native Facebook app.
Is it just me, or are those screenshots totally confusing? It's not the language barrier per-se, but I can't tell what any of those pages are supposed to be showing.
The thing that has me wondering though is, I thought there was no mail API - that's why Bloo and the others don't have mail yet.
Edit: Ok, I downloaded it and took some screenies of my own.
http://www.flickr.com/photos/nolageek2/sets/72157621869871714/
My opinion - it does a LOT. But it's kinda fugly and not fun or intuitive to use. I couldn't figure out how to view people's photos or reply to their wall posts, but I only had it for about 10 minutes and decided that I didn't like it enough to keep playing with it.
You could reply to e-mail, that was kind of cool. You couldn't do it from the message-read page though, you had to long-press on the message title on the message-list screen.
Mail is the only thing I saw that this has that Bloo doesn't (I haven't used babble). And with blue it's a LOT easier to comment on walls, photos, etc...
As you can see though, from the screenshots, it's got a LOT of options, so maybe I missed something.
Thanks for the review, nolageek.
If the interface improves, I wouldn't mind trying it. It'd be nice as well if the author could share their hacks with the Bloo and Babbler devs. Unless he's just recoding the HTML from the m.facebook.com site.
i like bloo the best so far, but i'm going to reserve judgment until the official app comes out next week.

Apps like Babbler and Bloo *could* do mail, but if they did they wouldn't be an officially approved Facebook app, since they wouldn't be following the guidelines of using strictly the API.
Neither of them are an officially approved Facebook app. There is no officially approved Facebook app, and no official Facebook app anyway.
And Babbler originally had mail, but it redirected users to the mobile site. Kind of a botched version. They've since dropped it in favor of pure API access.

Whats this about an official app next week now?
I don't like any of the facebook apps, I use the facebook mobile site ESPECIALLY for android.
x.Facebook.com -----Thats the best so far...don't use m.facebook.com
You can do what ever you want there...

there is rumored to be an official facebook app releasing with the launch of the MT3G, which happens next week. I see this as being strongly possible seeing as facebook, after years of TMO hating, just decided to open up mobile alerts for TMO customers.
It's not just T-Mobile they hate, it's Google as well.

wrong. there is a difference between an "official" app and an "approved" app. facebook approves apps and puts them on the web site if they follow all of their guidelines for apps. since facebook has announced they are making their own OFFICIAL app, they aren't listing android mobile apps anymore.

Not made for android. Made for all phones not iphone. But same page. Have you compared that feed to the real site? Its brutal. 1st few items are new, and then it just tosses a bunch of crap in from 24 hours ago or older. For anyone that uses facebook a few times a day, x.facebook is awful. Pretty tabs, but if feed is wrong, useless
For all those of you waiting for the official Facebook app and who haven't yet taken the leap and purchased the Bloo - Native Facebook App, heads up!
Starting tomorrow, Monday August 10th, through Tuesday August 11th, you can download Bloo for...absolutely nothing.
That's right, for...free!
According to its author, Bloo has gained over 6000 users since its first release, and because of that, he's promoting the application and giving it away free for 48 hours!
Now, if you're like me and you paid for it already, please don't complain. If you really don't have $1.49 to spare after paying your phone bill, then send a message to Dimitris. Otherwise, be happy that Bloo is gaining so much momentum, and that this promotion should draw in even more users.
As of today, Bloo 1.3.2's future feature list includes the following features:
Stream Facebook Filtering: You have been waiting for this. The ability to filter your posts based on your Facebook filters.
Expanded Stream: Show all posts even from other applications (such as the mighty Quiz app everyone wants!). Of course, for those who love (including me) the simpler stream there will be an option.
Notification links: Ability to click on a notification to take you where it is supposed to take you.
Gallery sharing: Instantly upload a photo from your Gallery.
So grab it tomorrow or Tuesday for free, and get in on the most beautiful native Facebook app for Android!

damn its nice to see someone making money in the market. if its true that he sold 6000+ copies in one month then he made $9000 (minus any fees). Thats pretty cool.
It's still $1.49. I would pay and just to download I now, but I chose to be patient and get it for free lol. Are you sure the dev is going to make it free? If not, I'm just going to buy it.

It's worth it. It's a great app and glad I ran across it.

Ok so all I can say is wow. My FaceBook was hacked. Not much happened just some Comments on BasketBall crap and they called one of my friends ugly but not much. Nobody knows my password. Last time I gave it to someone, it was a disaster. Now they hack me... and nobody knows it? Haha. I changed it. Anything else I can do?

Duh! You should've known by the way his mustache curled.
I just saw this game on another site and decided to give it a try since it's free. I've been want Words With Friends or a decent clone for awhile. Wordwise Pro just doesn't fit the bill. So far WordFeud is great given it's really new.
http://wordfeud.com/
PS: I'm not getting paid to promote this. It's just really fun and I'd though I'd share.
Add me if you want to play. My ID is Snapshotx
Awesome! I have been looking for something like this. Thanks so much. Just started playing you, username is Foobu.
Thanks for the recommendation! I have been missing "Words with Friends"
Anyone can add me for a game as well. My ID is dweebs0r.
wioooow this is the most exciting day I have ever had work my captivate, please people just uninstall word wize loool, that's is it,this is actually better than words with friends, all it needs is sounds, and an option to pay for a add free version, if they make this a cross platform words with friends is going to be yesterdays news
The reason I want words with friends is so that I can play with my fiancee on her iPhone.
tell get to get a android then you can be reunited with word feud again lol
Having alot of problems staying connected
Sent from my SAMSUNG-SGH-I897 using XDA App
its been working flawless for me and all my friends maybe its your network or something
my mistake, yes it isn't working at all now, even there website is down, seams like words with friends bought them out lol
Back up and working
Sent from my SAMSUNG-SGH-I897 using XDA App
Been playing it with my coworker since this morning, lol... Btw, is there a way to resign even if it's not your turn yet?
yes, this is MUCH better than WordWize - almost exactly like WWF.... if anyone is up for a game, feel free to invite me: Aftashok is the name.
man I used to LOVE words with friends on my iPhone. Thanks so much for sharing this!!!
If anyone wants to play just add: smeltn
i wish the game would incorporate a ratings system and win/loss records..... the competitive me wishes for such things.
Wish there was at least a paid version to get rid of ads, hopefully that will come cause i dont mind paying a dollar to support the developer on this, pretty good so far and the people over at WWF probably wont release anything for a while. Thought that games that were won/lost didnt go away but apparently they do after 2 days, needs to be sooner than that or user removable.
Name: hollaholla
Sweet!
Mine is TexUS.
It'd be nice if WWF would show up on here though so I can play with iPhone people.
This game uses a lot of data, like 1MB in 1 Minute.
Is there anyway to stop it from using data when you're not in a WiFi area?
thanks for the heads up...
awesome game...
PS: not to thread-jack, but has anyone found a good boggle clone out there... with randomly oriented letters like the real game?

check out wordup. it's a "boggle-like" game.
on topic, word feud is fun. checking out how much batt. it takes with the push notification and multiple games. add me for games: funthony.
I gave this a try a few weeks ago, after using WordWise for 2 months...and I wasn't a big fan. The lack of a paid version, updates, and stat tracking was kind of a deal breaker.
WordWise was admittedly spartan when it first came out...but the developer updates the app fairly regularly, so I think I'mma stick with that one...until it gets abandoned or WordFeud updates. Heh.
