Some times rivalries have to be kept aside where interests converge. Every one knows that Microsoft has a stake in Face Book and Google is working on Android.
Android phones are expected to give stiff competition to the iphones with several launches of new phones this year. So, it is logical and a matter of time that Face Book apps have to appear on the Android phones in what is the equivalent of the App Store called the Android Market.
The interesting news is that Google is taking the initiative for the Face Book app on Android Phones by delegating the work to its own engineers who will work with Face Book.
By the time the app for Android phones is developed by Google the iPhone apps of Face Book may feature video uploading and events etc.,
The current app being developed by Google for Android may not feature all those but is essentially bare bones Face Book. It may not contain the in box but features like updates and streaming will be available.
The Face Book app for Android may be out as early as the beginning of next month.
