Newsbrief: Earlier this year, Facebook launched its very own app marketplace in the United States, giving users a chance to browse and discover apps much like they would on the iOS or Android app stores. Now, Facebook has decided to expand the App Center by giving it its international debut. In addition to the Untied States, the Facebook App Center is now available in Australia, Canada, India, Ireland, New Zealand, and the United Kingdom, and Facebook says it will launch in other countries within the next few weeks. Now that the App Center is available internationally, Facebook hopes that developers will be able to increase discoverability for their apps and generate more interest for their products on a global scale. For more information on the App Center, check out Facebook's official developer blog.
