"Buddy Media, a Facebook application development company, has acquired five facebook applications from ChipIn, Inc. marking another deal for the company, weeks after taking on Crushes.  \nWithin the network owned by ChipIn, there are a reported 150+ million monthly page views, making it a rather attractive acquisition for Buddy Media, who is clearly looking to become the leader in the Facebook application market.  Among ChipIn's applications are \"Pirates versus Ninjas,\" \"Vampires versus Werewolves,\" and other similar games.\nIt seems the faith in Facebook apps has been somewhat renewed since the arrival of the Bebo platform, which supports Facebook applications, as well as Facebook's own licensing options, which will enable the application platform movement to grow in even more directions with a standardized approach (not to mention OpenSocial, but do I need to mention OpenSocial?)."^^<http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema#string>
