Facebook For Android/T-Mobile G1 Comes In The Form Of fBook!
Got a G1? Missing your mobile Facebook fix? Jealous of all those iPhone users uploading pictures an poking away?
Well, the self-proclaimed ‘mobile geeks’ at Next Mobile Web has managed to get the next best thing to T-Mobile G1 owners with the fBook app!
fBook is an Android app which tkes the setup of the iPhone-optimised mobile version of Facebook and crowbars it onto your G1. It brings over the more robust features of photo uploads, whilst also adding some Android-specific bonus content!
fBook allows you to detect incoming notifications and message alerts, and with the application able to run in the background on the G1, it can do so even whilst it is closed!
Also, and phone number in a Facebook profile instantly becomes ‘live’ when seen through fBook, with a text message button allowing you to instantly contact them online as well as iRL (in real life for you non-geeks!).
Despite not being the official Facebook app, fBook is a more than capable solution for the G1 in the meantime!
Download it from the Android Marketplace…it’s free!
