The Official Facebook App for iPad Is Finally Here [IPad Apps]

By Casey Chan Oct 10, 2011 4:16 PM 83,742 58

After sneak peaks and mysteriously long delays, the official Facebook app for iPad is finally here. Goodbye crappy Facebook iPad apps, goodbye non-touch friendly website and say hello to wasting more time on so-called friends!

It looks pretty much like the same Facebook iPad app that was previewed in July which means there's a familiar (for those who use the iPad) left-hand column for simple navigation of the News Feed, Photos, Messages, Groups, Apps, Settings, Chat and more. Facebook Photos on the iPad look especially good (something Facebook has trouble with on their website) because they go full screen and can be zoomed in and swiped. Facebook games can also be played full screen and the iPad app supports AirPlay for Facebook videos as well.

The iPad app is a universal update to their iOS app. You can now download it here. [iTunes via Facebook]

Some Guy Pranked YouTube Into Taking Down Justin Bieber's Official Videos Because of a Fake Copyright Claim [YouTube]

Some Guy Pranked YouTube Into Taking Down Justin Bieber's Official Videos Because of a Fake Copyright ClaimYouTube is big fat no fun having missy when it comes to copyright rules. They're so afraid of pissing somebody off (and getting a lawsuit) that they'll even pull official videos now. Like today, when a prankster submitted a copyright claim against Justin Bieber's Vevo and YouTube took down his page.

It effected more than little Biebs too, iLCreation filed copyright claims against Lady Gaga, Rihanna, Bruno Mars and other artists and some of their videos were pulled immediately too. How does this happen? Well, YouTube didn't even need to see any form of verification that iLCreation had the right to request the take downs.

Vevo's statement:

"Someone is making false copyright claims against the Justin Bieber and Lady Gaga channels and YouTube has blocked access to the videos as a result. We are working with YouTube to resolve ASAP."

It took a few hours for the videos to be restored but it's amazing YouTube's system allowed the videos to be taken down in the first place. It's VEVO! It's Justin Bieber! What will all the tweenies do without their boytoy's videos? [DMW Media via Geekosystem, Image Credit: Popblerd]
