FB makes mobile move after IPO flop

Facebook has released a “camera” application that lets people take Instagram-style pictures that can be shared with iPhones.

The stand-alone application synchs to the leading social network, letting friends consult one another’s photos.

The new mobile app “makes using Facebook photos faster and easier,” according to Product Manager Dirk Stoop.

“You’ll see a feed of great photos from the people you care about,” Stoop said in a Facebook post. “You can swipe to see more of any album or tap to enlarge an individual photo.”
