FACEBOOK WILL RELEASE its own app for the iPad in the coming weeks after a year of social networkers having to use third-party apps and the normal web-based interface when using their tablet.
The New York Times reports that a free iPad application that will be optimised for the tablet device will be released in the coming weeks with Mark Zuckerberg and co having spent almost a year designing, producing and testing the application for Apple’s tablet.
