It has been one year, six months and seven days after the first iPad went into the sale, when Facebook released its app for Apple's tablet iPad. A number of iPad users have been looking for this iPad applications since long and now finally its here.
The long delayed release of this application has been in conversation as well. Some says that the reason behind the delayed launch may be the rift between Mark Zukerberg and the Apple's top executive over Apple's ping social networking site. Some also says that Facebook preferred to be accessed online on iPad as that way it does not need to follow Apple Store strict set of rules.
Former Facebook developer Jeff Verkoeyen, the lead engineer on the the iPad app, wrote on his blog recently that he quit the company after Facebook continually delayed the release of the iPad app. As per him, Facebook was working on it since Oct 2010 and for some reason, which he denied to unveil, the launch kept on delaying. At present, Verkoeyen is working for Google.
Though delayed, the experience of having facebook app on your iPad will surely be great as you will have your entire world on your fingertips. Here in the snap you may see how the app will look like.
