????現(xiàn)在，好友更新狀態(tài)時，用戶可以使用Nearby功能查看他們與自己的相對方位。這項會顯示一張大地圖，并用好友的照片標(biāo)出他們所在的位置。對有些人來說，這項功能真是個別出心裁的意外驚喜；對其他人來說，它或許意味著Facebook對用戶行蹤的檢測又達(dá)到了新的高度。

????文章鏈接載入很快，有時候眨眼就能完成?？上?， iPad版Facebook無法運行Zynga出品的游戲，包括填字游戲Words with Friends，點擊游戲鏈接后，用戶會被自動導(dǎo)向Zynga的iPad應(yīng)用。不過這一情況很快就會改觀，Zynga不久就會推出新的版本，在Facebook的iPad應(yīng)用內(nèi)就能運行。

????就其他方面而言，F(xiàn)acebook為iPad開發(fā)的這款程序與大家的預(yù)期完全相符，許多功能都是從Facebook桌面應(yīng)用繼承而來，兩者并無二致。本周，F(xiàn)acebook更新了其iOS應(yīng)用，現(xiàn)在Facebook在iPad和iPhone這兩個平臺上的版本看起來幾乎如出一轍：只不過前者的視覺效果更佳。

????說真的，一旦克服了其中的漏洞，F(xiàn)acebook為iPad開發(fā)的首款軟件總體感覺堪稱明快時尚又深得人心。它在照片功能上花的心思可圈可點，但也談不上讓人耳目一新，還不至于讓第三方為Facebook開發(fā)的iPad應(yīng)用感到汗顏，至少目前如此。但是Facebook的用戶們無疑會為之歡欣鼓舞，哪怕有些人會感到納悶，為什么這款應(yīng)用的開發(fā)耗費了這么長的時間？

????And now when Friends update their statuses with their locations, you'll be able to see their proximity to you with the "Nearby" feature that displays a large map with photos of your friends pinned to their locations. It's a neat little bonus for some; for others, it may take Facebook stalking to a new level.

????Links to articles load fast, sometimes almost instantly. Unfortunately, the app currently links out to Zynga gaming apps you've downloaded to your iPad like Words with Friends. That will change soon when the developers roll out versions of its games fully playable from within the app itself.

????Otherwise, Facebook for iPad works just as you would expect it to, with many of the same features from the desktop experience carried over. And with this week's software update to the iOS app, the iPad and iPhone versions look very similar: one just plays up the visuals.

????Really, the overall feel of Facebook's first iPad release is snappy and intuitive once you get past the bugs. The focus on photos here is a nice touch, although there's nothing revolutionary here that puts third-party Facebook iPad apps to shame, at least not yet. The social network's users will undoubtedly be happy with it, even if some of them wonder what took so long.
