^{The move was set up in February} AdMob launches Facebook mobile advertising

Facebook Platform for Mobile allows developers to build applications that integrate with Facebook via user profiles also with SMS. Application developers can now monetise their apps by including mobile advertising from AdMob.

AdMob hired Facebook’s Vice President of Engineering back in February of this year. Now it is the first platform to provide advertising on Facebook Mobile. Facebook Platform for Mobile was launched late in October.

Application developers can integrate mobile advertising from AdMob into any application developed for Facebook Mobile.

AdMob provides developers a sample application called AdMob Footprints, based on Facebook’s own developer resource called Footprints. The tool, which is coded in PHP, can be used as the starting point to build apps that have the mobile advertising function already included.
