Facebook Picks up Parse For Mobile Developer Tools
- Forbes, Friday, April 26, 2013 12:01 PM

games integrate with Facebook more directly,” Forbes writes. “This, in a way, gives Facebook its own mobile app framework but doesn’t necessarily put it into direct competition with
established app palyers [sic].”
