1. Facebook expands mobile app install ads to all developers

2. Facebook Invites Press to Gifts Event in NYC Nov. 1

According to the news from CNET, Facebook sent an invitation to members of the press late Thursday for an event scheduled in New York City to “come see what’s new with Facebook Gifts.”

The invitation — which also includes the words “You = Invited” in front of a grey-scale packaged gift — will be held at FAO Schwarz toy store on Thursday, Nov. 1 at 7:30 p.m.

This marks Facebook will hold a press event in the upcoming weeks. The main purpose is to stimulate the growth of its business.

3. India, A New Facebook Testing Ground

India is becoming such a important testing ground for Facebook as it strives to cash in on growth in emerging markets and better target mobile-phone users—two increasingly pressing goals for the social-networking firm.

The company sees the giant nation, whose Internet user base is expanding rapidly, as a market central to its future prospects. Since putting its first employee in India in 2010, Facebook has grown from eight million Indian users to 65 million as of this month, making it one of the companys top global markets.By contrast, Facebooks growth appears to be slowing, particularly in the U.S, mainly due to so much competitors .  

But sustaining that growth and cashing in on it wont be a cinch. The firm must cater to millions of Indians coming online for the first time on low-tech mobile phones with spotty cell service. Everything—from Facebooks own services to the many apps Indian companies develop—will have to work in that environment. The firm must also lure marketers who still see social-media advertising as a fringe, experimental activity.

Just like Ms. Reddy said: "Were just early in our journey. "Weve got 1.2 billion people in India. We have a lot of people we still need to reach." India looks enticing: the country has about 100 million Internet users now, mostly via desktops, but the real prize is the group of 900 million-plus mobile-phone users, most of whom will get Web access for the first time in coming years.So Facebook have a lot work to do in order to be more successful in India.

If you still have not download the facebook mobile app, choose the app suit for you.
