Reliance and Facebook today announced the launch of a new Facebook mobile app exclusively available for Reliance subscribers in India. The new Facebook app will be made available for most of the popular handset models in India. Currently Reliance is providing a special promotional offer where all users can enjoy this app free for three months without incurring any data charges. This tie up between Facebook and Reliance indicates that facebook is keen on going deeper into its penetration in India. “We are always looking to work with innovative operators on ways to enable people to easily access Facebook wherever they are,” said Henri Moissinac, Head of Mobile Business, Facebook. The Facebook app provides the following features on the Reliance phone: Viewing photos from your mobile phone Synchronizing your local address book contacts with your Facebook friends Facebook login to third party services within the app, such as news, sports, games, and weather The new Facebook app is optimized to use as little data as possible while still providing a great user experience thus making it much cheaper for regular users. Its no doubt that the battle for social networking in India will be fought on the mobile as the number of mobile phones far exceed the number of internet connections in the country.
