MINE for Facebook–Windows 8 Facebook Client released
I’m very proud to be able to announce that MINE for Facebook, the first dedicated Facebook client for Windows 8, has been released and is now available in the Windows Store.
It’s a Facebook client created with one mission in mind: to show you your Facebook feed, the way you want to see it. Of course you can see your Facebook timeline, post updates, comment & like, …, but if you want, you can go one step further and customize your feeds until they exactly fit your needs.
Some of its features:
- View your Facebook news feed.
- Comment, like & update your status, share a link, add a picture, …
- View your friends’ profile pages, including their wall posts.
- Customize your feeds! Do you only want to see status updates? No problem. Do you want to see all the pictures, but only from a select group of friends? No problem.
- So, next to your regular feed, you can create custom feeds, allowing you to select exactly what you want to see from which friends.
- Update your Facebook status or share a link or picture from any application which supports sharing!
- Get notifications from Facebook right on your Windows start screen.
- Designed with Windows 8 in mind, for both touch & non-touch devices.
- Search Facebook from anywhere in Windows.
The version that’s released right now could be consider a “preview” version – there’s a reason the version number states “v0.9.0” 🙂 The more feedback we get, the better the app will become.
We’re adding new features constantly (yes, events & albums are high on the list ;-)), aiming for a fast release schedule – and we’re hoping to get to v1.0 soon.
In the meantime, I hope you enjoy the app!
Ow, and if you happen to live in Belgium: I’m delivering a session at Microsoft Windows 8 App Day tomorrow, in which I’ll go into some details on how MINE for Facebook was built – come say hi! 🙂
