Facebook has been
making a lot of promises during a tour to drum up interest in its
ever-nearing IPO, but the one gadget-heads have been wanting to hear the most, a commitment to
its mobile apps, has been elusive -- until now. Everyone's favorite hooded CEO,
Mark Zuckerberg,
is telling investors in his home 'burg of the San Francisco Bay that
mobile is front and center in his company's plans. We're hoping that
means new app features, although Zuck is likely referring to
money-making as well: shareholders are jittery knowing that Facebook
makes most of its money on web ads that it's not running on smartphones
and tablets. Paid titles in
App Center
will go a long way towards scratching that itch, mind you. As for us,
we'll just be happy if Facebook takes less than a year and a half to
produce a
major tablet app.
