FACEBOOK IPHONE APP 3.0 TO BE RELEASED SOON

 

Facebook is planning to unleash its 3.0 version of its now-antique iPhone application. The world (err...the iPhone/iPod Touch community) will finally get to use almost all of the facebook features one came to know and love on the desktop. More info after the jump.

For one, the interface has received a major update to complement the new internal features, rather than slapping them onto the old GUI. Here's some of the new features according to the official Facebook blog:

1. The "new" News Feed
2. Like
3. Events (including the ability to RSVP)
4. Notes
5. Pages
6. Create new photo albums
7. Upload photos to any album
8. Zoom into photos
9. Easier photo tagging
10. Profile Pictures albums
11. A new home screen for easy access to all your stuff, search, and notifications
12. Add your favorite profiles and pages to the home screen
13. Better Notifications (they link to the comments so you can reply)
14. Quickly call or text people right from the Friends page
15. Messages you are typing will be restored if you quit or are interrupted by a phone call

They also go ahead and mention that the most requested feature, push notifications, will not be ready by a 3.0 release, but are a  very high priority for an upcoming 3.1 version. Facebook does not have an official release date for the app, but they expect it to come out this summer.
