GetJar Helps Facebook Mobile App Thrive
Doug October 1st, 2009
A company called GetJar may help Facebook obtain a considerably bigger foothold in the mobile market than it would have managed otherwise. Tricia Duryee reports, “The service does this by alerting users to the fact that a mobile application is available for download when they go to the company’s web site from their phone’s browser.” And apparently, Facebook “has seen an additional one million downloads a week, or about 8.5 million in total during a two-month trial period.” That’s impressive stuff.
