Facebook on Monday released software that lets members of the social networking site connect on Apple's iPads.
The release of an iPad application is part of a move by Facebook to stay in synch with modern lifestyles that revolve increasingly around Internet-linked wireless mobile gadgets.
"Many of you have been asking about Facebook for iPad," Facebook mobile engineer Leon Dubinsky said in a blog post."It's finally here."
Features added to the Facebook iPad software include being able to chat with friends or watch high-resolution streaming video, according to the engineer.
Facebook also upgraded its iPhone application to allow faster online searches, simpler navigation of pages, and access to more games and other socially-oriented mini-programs, Dubinsky said. Approximately 800 million people belong to the Palo Alto, California-based social network.
