Facebook is working hard to keep its power the same on social media world. So every day there are some good news about it. One of the best news is that Facebook is currently testing the “professional skills” like Linkedin, as you can see also on your profile.

Other Facebook News are regarding the Top 25 apps, the September list of the most used social games and apps, and the testing of a new Like button directly on the Even pages. I let you read the following article, composed by the best breaking news on Facebook!

Facebook Testing LinkedIn-Like ‘Professional Skills’ Addition To ‘About’ Section

Facebook added a teaspoon of Twitter to its test kitchen late last month with its test launch of trending topics, featuring popular hashtags in real-time. Now the social network is adding a liter of LinkedIn to the mix, experimenting with the addition of a “professional skills” section of its “about” section for users.

Top 25 Facebook apps: September 2013

So you know that King’s Candy Crush Saga is the top Facebook app (and by a wide margin), but what other apps are popular among Facebook users? King also has the No. 2 Facebook app in Pet Rescue Saga, but many of the most popular Facebook apps aren’t games at all.

Facebook Testing Like Button On Events Pages?

Facebook appears to be testing the addition of a like button to pages for events. An AllFacebook reader shared the screenshot below, in which the page for the upcoming TechCrunch Disrupt SF 2013 features a like button adjacent to the buttons for join and maybe.

Facebook Testing Mobile Notifications Promoting Hashtags, Trending Topics?

Following last week’s discovery that Facebook was testing a trending topics module in the upper-right-hand corner of its desktop News Feed in an effort to promote usage of its hashtags feature, that effort has apparently gone mobile, as well.

Facebook launches new APIs to make it easier for real-time activity to be accessed

Many media organizations are catching on, wanting to know what people on Facebook are saying about a certain topic. While it’s easier with Twitter, where celebrities often talk about issues of the day, Facebook wants to be known in this space, as well. The site launched two new application programming interfaces (APIs) to make it easier for news organizations to show public posts and real-time conversation data around a certain topic.

Thanks so much and see you soon,
