Facebook FINALLY launches its official app for Apple's iPad

We’ve been expecting it for some time now. We even got impatient and wrote about four things we’d love it to include. But it seems Facebook has now FINALLY launched its official app for the iPad according to The Facebook Blog.

The blog post about the app explains that it’s pretty comprehensive, with a focus on big photos, swiping and pinching your way around the platform and most notably a handy left-hand menu with access to your groups, pages, games and more.

Granted we didn’t see some of the BIG changes we were hoping for, like a look more akin to the new Timeline and a dynamic News Ticker. But, there’ll probably be a few tweaks over the next few months, especially as regular users ditch their personal profiles in favour of a shiny new Timeline.
