Facebook F8 Conference: What it can mean for your Mobile App

The Facebook F8 Conference  promises to unveil exciting new features to allow users to engage with content.  One thing that is already noticeable is the new look of users' Facebook NewsFeed.  Even though this new feature has its fair share of critics, I feel that Facebook is positioning itself to take an even larger role in people's lives.  So how does this effect developers of Mobile Apps?

Well one major thing that I can foresee is that Mobile Game Developers may want to strongly consider moving their games to the Facebook App Platform.  Even without taking full advantage of all of the social features that the Graph API has available, several games could be quite successful.  Some simple Googling can provide several short tutorials to get one started in creating their very own Facebook App.  That's just my two cents for today.
