Facebook has announced that they will soon be launching a new ‘App Centre’ for their version of an application store, that will house all the applications and games that we currently enjoy on Facebook.

The new App centre is also entitled to showcase paid apps and games; something that was missing from Facebook so far. The store will be available to web users as well as the iOS and Android versions of the Facebook mobile app. They will start rolling out to users in a few weeks, but developers can sign up right now if they want their apps on the App Centre.

App Centre will not have any ‘top lists’ feature like other application stores but will use ratings to list apps. Also interesting is that the store arranges applications according to what you rate, giving it a personal feel.

Developers are required to have a detail page for their apps. You can find more details on that here. Interested developers can click here to sign up.

From what we can tell so far, Facebook App Centre will be a strong competitor to Google’s Chrome Web Store than the App Store or Play Store. With a 900 million user to start with, there should not be much of a problem gaining popularity.

This is so cool - facebook apps! The app market is continually growing, as someone who know I would recommend registering immediately for The App Show 2014, January 30 – February 1, 2014 at The San Diego Convention Center (www.theappshow.org). This is going to be the event of the year to monetize your app! With 3 full days of exhibitions, multiple tracks of need-to-know sessions and meetings, high-level keynote speakers, high-octane networking receptions, business development opportunities, 100’s of showcased apps, 1,000s of new contacts, speed meetings and app competitions.
