At Facebook core is the social graph, people and the connections they have to everything they care about. Historically, Facebook has managed this graph and has expanded it over time as it launch new products (photos, places, etc.). Now Facebook Intoduce the Facebook Developers Open Graph BETA docs and tools for developers to test along with a prelease of the facebook new timeline.

The Open Graph allows apps to model user activities based on actions and objects. A running app may define the ability to "run" (action) a "route" (object). A reading app may define the ability to "read" (action) a "book" (object). A recipe app may define the ability to "cook" (action) to a "recipe" (object). Actions are verbs that users perform in your app. Objects define nouns that the actions apply to. Facebook Already got some default examples that available for developers to test it and see how it works.

After a user adds your app to their Timeline, app specific actions are shared on Facebook via the Open Graph. As your app becomes an important part of how users express themselves, these actions are more prominently displayed throughout the Facebook Timeline, News Feed, and Ticker. This enables your app to become a key part of the user and their friend experience on Facebook.

Facebook is pretty popular, but did you know that in fact 1 in 10 people use Facebook and that combined, that makes 800 million users worldwide?

With that much activity, Facebook Inc. have made themselves a pretty sizable audience for advertisers to address, but with talks of the company going public, just how much did you expect it was actually worth ?

Rovio just confirmed that their immensely popular title is hitting the world largest social network on February 14.

The Facebook Angry Birds will have higher quality animations than their mobile counterparts and will introduce new power-ups. According Penn Olson those special power ups will either be an earthquake or new, more powerful birds.

Rovio plans to hold a huge launch event in Jakarta, which according to the company is the "global capital of Facebook". The Facebook version will brings some nice new twists to the gameplay, so it's definitely one worth checking out.

Facebook filled for IPO yesterday. We are not going to bore you with the technical information about it, as those are mostly of interest to banks and their corporate clients at this point, but the documents submitted mention a few quite interesting facts about the social network.

Obviously, the network still has not reached saturation point as its user base keeps growing. By the end of last year Facebook had 845 million users, who formed 100 billion friendships, uploaded 250 million photos per day and generated 2.7 billion daily likes.

I think many people understand today that the photos they put on Facebook and other social networking sites can be used against them by employers when searching for a new job. I am sure a lot of people posting pictures to Facebook have thought better of it after a few hours, days, or weeks and then went back and deleted the photo. The catch is that the photo may be deleted from your profile and as it turns out, often the photos are still the Facebook servers and accessible.

According to ArsTechnica, three years after photos were deleted from some Facebook accounts the photos are still accessible via direct links it has access to. All a person needs to be an access the photos you deleted in most cases is the direct link to the photo, and you can still see it. ArsTechnica reports that it started following this back in 2009 and that some of the links to deleted photos they found still accessible back in 2009 are still accessible today despite being deleted from the user account.

Now that Facebook has filed for an IPO, we knew it might lead to some changes for the world largest social network. Well, a new report from the Financial Times reports that we could start to see some advertising on its mobile products in the coming weeks.

The report suggests that advertising on mobile Facebook will be different than on the web, as it will primarily concentrate on promotional "featured stories" within your news feed. These should be clearly identified but you just know that people are going to freak out whenever Facebook does anything. While I don't like more ads in my life, I understand why this has to happen.

Facebook listed mobile as one of its biggest risks because it currently does not generate any significant revenue from its apps or mobile web products, VentureBeat points out. This has all been by design, as Facebook was looking for scale on the mobile side before generating money. It has done quite well on that front, as it currently has more than 425 million mobile users.

DO NOT Forget, Next Tuesday (14, Feb) is the Valentine Day, Your Girlfriend will kill you if you forget to get her a present, Also Make sure you Check the NEW Rovio Angry Birds Facebook Edition that will be released on the same day. The Facebook version will allow play Angry Birds with new levels and share your progress in your timeline and compete with your friends too.

The Facebook Angry Birds will have some New Features Gameplay that will be called "Power-Ups" which will increase your points on the game but it will cost you $0.99 , We have the full Power-Ups list here...

Super Seeds – More Info & Video

Tap this power-up and your bird will look like he’s spent the last several months pumping iron at the gym.

King Sling – More Info & Video

This power-up will allow you to fling your Angry Bird faster and farther than ever before. Let’s just hope he comes down at some point.

Sling Scope – More Info & Video

If you need an additional layer of accuracy call upon this power-up. Also useful for those who can’t aim very well.

Birdquake – More Info & Video

I don’t think those pigs structures were built to code, so if the grounds shakes there’s a good chance something is coming down.

Egg Bomb – More Info & Video

The birds have finally wised up and created bombs masked as plain ol’ eggs. Oh, and they’re dropped via parachute from about 20,000 feet, making them highly accurate.

Also we have a small Video Teaser from Rovio, The Video reveals some actual game play, which will be unlike anything we have seen. From what I can tell it looks like it will be Flash based and contain some completely new options, animations, and full screen capabilities. It also looks like the Mighty Eagle will be available, but does not look to be unlimited use.

This Man is not Crazy, He is just Pissed OFF!

If you are a teenager, you better be careful what you post on Facebook. Especially, If you have a father who works in IT. But there is that one quirk about teenagers no matter what common sense says, they think they know better. That is, until they are taught a lesson they can never forget. Apparently this dad thought a bullet might teach that lesson. Better yet, nine bullets. He shot his daughter's computer after finding a disparaging message on her Facebook wall.

And he documented it all on video so he could post it on YouTube for all to see. And so far it has received nearly 2.9 million views. In the video, the angry dad reveals he saw a hidden wall post on her daughter Facebook account while he was upgrading her computer. "Since you want to hide it from everyone, I am going to share it with everybody," the dad, Tommy Jordan, said. He then goes on to read her tirade about how she dislikes her chores and all the other stuff most teenagers have to deal with.

The video (Listed Below) has confused reactions from both people who approve and disapprove. but Tell us What you think about it ?

As we announced before Rovio popular game Angry Birds launched on the Valentine's day, Angry Birds Facebook version of the game is much more sophisticated and feature-rich than its Google+ cousin, which was launched back in the summer of last year. Angry Birds on Facebook runs on Adobe Flash 11 and supports 3D graphics, which put your computer through its paces rendering the cool lighting, smoke and explosion effects the game boasts.

Rovio have thrown a new feature in their Angry Birds Facebook port called "Power-up". It is a cheating and there are four of them you can use: Sling Scope, King Sling, Super Seeds and Birdquake.

Facebook is rolling out a new system to verify user accounts that will allow some users to use nicknames. Since Facebook at its core is looking for your personal information, it has always wanted you to use your real name unless you are a big star such as Lady Gaga. Facebook is positioning this account verification as a way to ensure that people do not subscribe to an imposter who might be trying to impersonate someone on Facebook.

By verifying an account, the users will get more prominent placement in the Facebook "People to Subscribe to" suggestions. Techcrunch reports that starting today people with many subscribers will start being notified of the option to verify their account by uploading their government supplied ID. The person real name, if they go by a pseudonym, will still be listed on the about page. Apparently, each verified account will be processed manualy.

Amid all the IPO hysteria that has recently surrounded Facebook, the social network also made news by announcing it plans to introduce mobile advertising for users who connect to the site through a smartphone app. In just its first year, where the ads will only be active in six countries, that initiative could bring in more than a billion more dollars to the soon-to-be public company bottom line.

Specifically, moblie research group MobileSquared predicts that within the first 12 months after Facebook mobile ads go live, there will be a $1.2 billion revenue stream that did not exist before. That may sound impressive, but when you factor in the number of users who are active in the mobile Facebook world, that is only around $6.50 per user per year.

After Timeline for Personal Profile pages. Today, Facebook launched the Timeline for Brand pages preview, Where Admins can preview their pages with the new timeline style that will be published globally in 30,March to all facebook pages. If you are a page Admin check your head to your page and you will see a notification like the one Below. You can preview your page timeline or publish it.

The cover photo opportunity, which we have now all seen on Facebook personal profiles, is a beautiful billboard. You can now use it o your Brand page at 852 pixels wide by 315 pixels high, this real estate can be used to convey a lot of information about a business. And because Facebook makes it easy to change your cover photo, having a cover photo strategy might mean creating multiple versions of your cover photo and changing it regularly.

Our Questions is ?

• Will fan pages still have the option to set a default landing page?

• Will fan pages still have the ability to add custom tabs?

• How will the new design affect social e-commerce, contests, and opt in offers?

Facebook CEO, Mark Zuckerberg has let slip that his company plans to buy popular photo-sharing app Instagram. Facebook will pick up the social app, which got its own long-awaited Android version, for a cool $1 billion in cash and shares. Zuck confirmed the news on his personal blog, adding that the deal will not affect Instagram integration with competing social networks:

"We think the fact that Instagram is connected to other services beyond Facebook is an important part of the experience. We plan on keeping features like the ability to post to other social networks, the ability to not share your Instagrams on Facebook if you want, and the ability to have followers and follow people separately from your friends on Facebook."

Instagram CEO Kevin Systrom confirmed via his site is blog that the service, "is not going away," adding, "The Instagram app will still be the same one you know and love." Check out some PR on the subject after the break.

Facebook to Acquire Instagram

MENLO PARK, CALIF.-April 9, 2012-Facebook announced today that it has reached an agreement to acquire Instagram, a fun, popular photo-sharing app for mobile devices.

The total consideration for San Francisco-based Instagram is approximately $1 billion in a combination of cash and shares of Facebook. The transaction, which is subject to customary closing conditions, is expected to close later this quarter.

Mark Zuckerberg, founder and CEO of Facebook, posted about the transaction on his Timeline:

I'm excited to share the news that we've agreed to acquire Instagram and that their talented team will be joining Facebook.

For years, we've focused on building the best experience for sharing photos with your friends and family. Now, we'll be able to work even more closely with the Instagram team to also offer the best experiences for sharing beautiful mobile photos with people based on your interests.

We believe these are different experiences that complement each other. But in order to do this well, we need to be mindful about keeping and building on Instagram's strengths and features rather than just trying to integrate everything into Facebook.

That's why we're committed to building and growing Instagram independently. Millions of people around the world love the Instagram app and the brand associated with it, and our goal is to help spread this app and brand to even more people.

We think the fact that Instagram is connected to other services beyond Facebook is an important part of the experience. We plan on keeping features like the ability to post to other social networks, the ability to not share your Instagrams on Facebook if you want, and the ability to have followers and follow people separately from your friends on Facebook.

These and many other features are important parts of the Instagram experience and we understand that. We will try to learn from Instagram's experience to build similar features into our other products. At the same time, we will try to help Instagram continue to grow by using Facebook's strong engineering team and infrastructure.

This is an important milestone for Facebook because it's the first time we've ever acquired a product and company with so many users. We don't plan on doing many more of these, if any at all. But providing the best photo sharing experience is one reason why so many people love Facebook and we knew it would be worth bringing these two companies together.

We're looking forward to working with the Instagram team and to all of the great new experiences we're going to be able to build together.

Facebook has Officially launched "Messanger for Windows" the first official Facebook Messenger client for Desktops PCs, Not just for chatting but also for Messaging, Sending files and see Notifications without a need of any browser.

In fact, after the client leaked back in December, Zuck and Co. unceremoniously dumped the executable on the web, opened up the help page and did so without any info about the App back then.

Now the program is getting a proper launch, complete with a landing page and a press release. There is not much here to shock or surprise Messenger for Windows allows you to chat with your Facebook friends in a simple tabbed interface, check your news feed and delivers notifications to your desktop.
