The Washington Post Facebook App: 350000 Downloads
25 03 2008Since The Washington Post launched its Facebook app (application), i.e. The Compass, it was making headlines and gained favorably acceptance by a huge crowd of Facebook users. You can read the personal blog of Rob Curley, as he wrote:
“Still, the numbers for our Facebook app are very respectable. For the first several weeks, The Compass was one of the Top 10 most-downloaded apps on Facebook, and even cracked the Top 5 a couple of times.”
“As of today, The Compass has about 300,000 Facebook users who have it on their profile page, which still puts it in the Top 50 most-downloaded Facebook apps.”
As of today, The Washington Post Facebook app has reached another milestone, by reaching the 350,000 downloads since its first appeared on the Facebook platform. And thus, Beet.TV has interviewed the Executive Editor of The Washington Post.com, where you can watch the video in the below.
It should be noted that not long ago, in November last year, The Washington Post also developed another application called, newsTracker, a kind of app that allowed users to create their personalized news feeds, according to their preferences on the topics that appeal important to them.
