4 Facebook Applications We’re Working On

FacebookToday, I'm going to reveal four Facebook applications we've got in development, give a brief description of each one, suggest some uses, and state why we think each is a Facebook killer app.

Before we started building, we defined two criteria that separate the good Facebook apps from the rest. First, the app doesn't take up a lot of space and second, it’s easy to use and share.

So with those in mind, we came up with four Facebook applications that would tie-in with our primary business model, creating professional digital audio.

Let's jump to it.


Facebook Audio Wall

Uses: Any Friend-to-Friend type messages
Ideas: Birthday greetings, Thank you messages, Congratulations messages, Come to my party, Come to my event
Recording Method: Call in to a phone number with your cell phone
Audio Limit: 60 seconds
Why it’s a killer app? Works with Facebook mobile m.facebook.com


Facebook Micro Podcasting

Why it’s a killer app? “Words represent your intellect. The sound, gesture and movement represent your feelings.” Patricia Fripp

Uses: Any one-to-many type messages, targeted for a specific group
Ideas: Posting a recording from a lecture, seminar or other live event

Why it’s a killer app? We need an alternative to the iTunes Podcast Directory.


Facebook Audio Ads

Description: Commercials uploaded to the Facebook marketplace when you post a new item.

Ideas: Concert promotions, messages from the vendor, sales messages to help sell a product.

Why it’s a killer app? The audio ad can be sent to friends, with a link back to the original item, as displayed in the marketplace. Additionally, the audio could be downloaded to a cellphone, iPod or iPhone.

  • I desperately have a need for a simple Facebook application (and I think nearly everyone would have a use for it)

    A Lost and Found application. I have found some things in my house and I'm sure they belong to my friends. I have lost something too, and it's probably at a friends house.

    If anyone with the skills sees this, please create it!

    Thanks
