Today facebook launched version 2 of its iPhone app and it is 100% better than the original. The new app adds basic facebook functionality that it was originally missing. Notifications are there and you have a real news feed with some functions that are even better than facebook’s actual site.

One of my favorites is the new news feed. It allows you to see how many comments any certain post has, and let you add one right from the news feed. Another great feature in the news feed is the bar on the top. You slide your finger horizontally across the bar to switch the news feed you are viewing. It implements friend groups so you can only look at the news feed of people you want to see. It also lets you look at the news feed for certain facebook apps. The inbox has been updated, showing a much easier to read conversation. And as always there is facebook chat.

So as some of you may know, I am in southern California this week, visiting some friends, going to a church conference, and on Friday I will fly up to San Fran to visit some grad schools up in the Bay Area. So far my trip had been a lot of fun, and I know you must all be missing random sarah updates but here is a quick recap!

Flew to Oakland..had a 2 hr layover, got in to Long Beach…waited on the ground for 30 mins after a whole jet blue flight with NO TV :( Got to my friends house, hacked my iPhone…went live on Qik…A LOT!

Found out you can be a vegetarian and still eat In-N-Out burger ::yum!:: …streamed on Qik some more…had great green tea :) … drove and drove and drove (cause no one walks in Cali) ate at Marie Callender’s (it was ok) went to Wal-Mart for the first time (did you know they sell goldfish?) , tried to stream on Qik but there was no 3G in Wall-Mart :( Searched for fellow vegetarians…not much luck …. almost met up with Gary Vaynerchuk in LA but he had to leave early :( …. played with friends… went to a lot of church meetings… and now I am writing this post when I probably should be taking a nap :)

So Friday night I fly up to San Fran and hopefully I will be doing a lot of live streaming on Qik! If you want to make sure you will always know when I am live you can follow me on twitter
