		<description><![CDATA[<p>Around the world, the biggest apps -- and the ones that make the most money -- are turning to Facebook for users and&#160;features.</p>
<img alt="" border="0" src="http://stats.wordpress.com/b.gif?host=venturebeat.com&#038;blog=342986&#038;post=584681&#038;subd=venturebeat&#038;ref=&#038;feed=1" width="1" height="1" />]]></description>
				<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p><img src="http://venturebeat.files.wordpress.com/2012/12/facebook-platform.jpg?w=1024&#038;h=768" alt="facebook platform" width="1024" height="768" class="aligncenter size-full wp-image-584688" /></p>
<p>Facebook announced today at Parisian tech conference LeWeb that Facebook.com was home to more than 350 applications with more than 1 million active monthly users each.</p>
<p>In a panel onstage, Facebooker  Justin Osofsky also said Platform has been integrated with more than 200,000 iOS and Android mobile apps. When it comes to the big money-makers, Osofsky wrote this morning on the company <a href="https://developers.facebook.com/blog/post/2012/12/05/facebook-at-leweb-2012/" target="_blank" target="_blank">blog</a>, nine of the 10 top money-making iPhone apps are Facebook-integrated, and almost half of the top 400 iPhone and iPad apps use Facebook Platform.</p>
<p>Of course, there was a bit of light pandering to LeWeb&#8217;s heavily European crowd of entrepreneurs, developers, and technology enthusiasts. Osofsky mentioned to the audience that Paris is the number-two city in the world when it comes to Open Graph submissions for Timeline apps (don&#8217;t worry, San Francisco; you&#8217;re still number one). Also, he said that 40 percent of all submissions for Timeline apps come from developers in Europe.</p>
<p>A lot of Platform activity is the direct result of announcements Facebook made ages ago at <a href="http://venturebeat.com/2011/09/22/f8-2011-keynote/">its developer conference in 2011</a>. At that time, Mark Zuckerberg told the audience about Facebook&#8217;s biggest-ever changes: all new Timeline-based profiles, functionality for listening to music with friends, wildly better graphic interfaces across the site, and something called Actions.</p>
<p><a href="http://venturebeat.com/2012/01/18/facebook-actions-rollout/">Actions represented</a> an all new way for developers, brands, and publishers to interact with Facebook users, and by using Actions and integrating with Timeline, many app developers began to see <a href="http://venturebeat.com/2012/02/29/goodreads-facebook-timeline/">huge bumps</a> in user activity, from new signups to app engagement.</p>
<p>Given all that <em>and</em> the fact that the social network is now, at one billion users and still growing, the largst of its kind, it&#8217;s not too surprising that developers are putting Facebook first when building their apps &#8212; no more surprising than the fact that many developers are putting mobile first. They&#8217;re fishing where the fish are.</p>
