Facebook has had one major thorn in its side for quite some time, and that’s its Android app. For some reason, they just can’t seem to get it right — or just don’t care. Well, it looks like someone in the Facebook camp cares, because some employees are now being required to use Android devices as their only device — so they can see just how bad the app really is.

Earlier today, EA issued a press release for its upcoming SimCity. Within the release, it was revealed that both the game and EA’s Origin client would be making its way to Mac. This news not only signified the return of Sims to Mac, but also that EA was becoming more serious about getting its Steam competitor out to other platforms. I say platforms because later on during the company’s GamesCom press conference, they announced their plans to also bring Origin to Android, Facebook, and SmartTVs.

The Android blogosphere exploded with rumors of Motorola’s plan to unveil a new Android phone via a Facebook guessing game. I, of course, had to check it out. What I found was wording that didn’t indicate that Motorola would in fact be revealing a new device:

Let’s play a game, Guess the Smartphone. We’ll give a clue each day all week and make the big reveal on Friday. I have the power of 4G LTE. Which smartphone am I?

Facebook pushed out an update yesterday, and while early reports say the app still “sucks,” they’ve added support for front-facing cameras, dropped support for Eclair and below, and included various bug fixes. The Facebook app for Android has long been a thorn in Facebook’s side with close to 800,000 1-star reviews and this latest version appears to fall short of expectations.

U.S. Facebook users should start seeing Facebook’s new App Center when they log into Facebook via the web, Android app, or iOS apps. Facebook’s new App Center is less of an “App Store” and more of a central location for Facebook users to discover new apps. In reality, it’s just a way for Facebook to keep users in Facebook or using Facebook integrated apps.
