Video of New Facebook for iPhone 2.0
Posted by Nick O'Neill on August 31st, 2008 3:47 PMI’m not quite sure that Facebook is going to approve of this but I decided to post it anyways. Browsing through my news feed this weekend I stumbled across the following video which was created by Joe Hewitt at Facebook. I couldn’t resist embedding it below. The new Facebook iPhone application has a really slick way of tagging photos within the application.
This version of the video only shows the photo tagging capabilities in the new version of the application but there will be additional features. As Facebook posted earlier this month, there will be an increase in the number of messages displayed in a user’s inbox. Before, users were limited to how many messages they could view.
One other feature that I’m looking forward to is location-based services. There is no sign that location-based services will be used in the upcoming release of the Facebook for iPhone application but at f8, a number of Facebook employees alluded to this feature eventually being added. This version looks great though!

I'm a user of Facebook as well as working within the industry and to be honest I can't say that I'm reallt that impressed with the 'New' Facebook as a whole at all.
I don't understand how a company making close to $350 million a year can make such 'Big' changes that infact look they haven't spent any time thinking about it and wasting money on the 'New' Facebook that no one seems to like.
Don't get me wrong though, the iphone still looks sexy as!!
