According to David Kirkpatrick, author of The Facebook Effect, the application is: "So heavily used compared to other apps that I have been told by someone who thought he knew the data -- this is highly secret data and I don't know the actual numbers - that more than half of all usage of the iPhone of apps, other than those provided by the phone itself like telephony and email, is coming from Facebook."
The latest version of Facebook for iPhone includes a number of new features, including Places, currently only available in the U.S. Places gives you the option to share your location by "checking in" to a place and letting friends know where you are.
The recent Facebook iPhone update adds "granular" privacy settings, a snappier inbox with support for threads with multiple users, and improved performance when commenting, liking or posting stories and fixes login issues.
Available from the Apple iTunes App Store, Facebook for iPhone, iPod Touch, and iPad is free and requires the iPhone 3.0 Software Update or later.
