Social networking giant Facebook has recently launched its App centre in India and six other countries to make convenient the users to find games, music services and media content easily. Facebook Software Engineer Drew Hoskins has written in the Facebook blog,"The App Center is now available to everyone in the US, Australia, Canada, India, Ireland, New Zealand, South Africa, and the UK," App Centre will also be launched in Brazil, France, Germany, Russia, Spain, Taiwan, and Turkey in the coming weeks.
Facebook is the mostly used social networking site that has more than900 million monthly active users across the world. It also added a localization tool to the App Dashboard that would allow developers to translate the names and descriptions of their apps into other languages.
The App Center icon is located on the left side of the home page on Facebook and is also available on Apple and Android mobile devices. Actually, the centre does not host apps, but sends users to the appropriate app store for their device.
Interestingly, some of Facebook’s most popular apps, including Spotify (Sweden), Diamond Dash (Wooga, Germany), Bubble Witch Saga (King.com, U.K.), Jetpack Joyride (Halfbrick, Australia), Angry Birds Friends (Rovio, Finland), Ninja Showdown (Noritown, South Korea), Soundcloud (Germany) and Deezer (France) have been developed by personnel out of the North American countries
