NewsGator Facebook App is released.

NewsGator Technologies the maker of the popular RSS reader has created a Facebook App that you can add to Facebook here

With this App you can get a pre-packaged list of feeds to read, add your own or you can see what your friends on Facebook are reading in their ‘Gator’ and grab their info.

Sharing information is the main focus of this App. You probably won’t replace your current RSS reader. However, this App does a nice job of tuning you into what others are focusing on and may prove useful in providing you ideas for future posts.

Google Facebook App?

Recent news indicates that Google is close to “perfecting” their Facebook App. However, as of today 8/31/07 there is still an error greeting those attempting to install this App.

Why use it?
Supposedly when you get to use this “Search App” your search results are displayed in your mini feed. Is this the only purpose to this App besides a search function? I have three or four search options available already. Why do I need another? Also, why do I want my Facebook friends seeing what I am searching? Seems pointless to me.
