Third parties developers are also staying busy with new apps and services. The results include a variety of creative apps and tools useful for marketing music on Facebook. We previously looked at Facebook Timeline apps useful for music marketing from or for [such companies as Pinterest, Livestream and MailChimp](https://www.hypebot.com/facebook-timeline-apps-for-your-bands-page-pinterest-livestream-mailchimp-more/). In addition to apps covered in this post, recent news about Facebook Timeline, new apps and music marketing are included at the end of this post. **Facebook Camera** Facebook recently [launched its own mobile photo app](http://econsultancy.com/us/blog/9988-facebook-launches-homegrown-mobile-photo-app?ref=hypebot.com) and with the acquisition of Instagram and the widespread use of Facebook on mobile devices suggests strong dominance in mobile.

Though one commentaor described it as a "[Reckless New Ads Test](http://techcrunch.com/2012/05/10/highlight-facebook-status-updates/?ref=hypebot.com)", I think a lot of people would pay to see their posts highlighted in their friends' feeds. The question is how will their friends respond? **Facebook Filesharing & File Transfers by Pipe** The big news earlier this month was Facebook's plans to [offer filesharing through groups](http://mashable.com/2012/05/10/facebook-groups-3/?ref=hypebot.com). This feature is gradually rolling out. If what you really need is the ability to transfer files, such as review copies of MP3s, the still-in-beta [Pipe](http://www.usepipe.com/?ref=hypebot.com) looks like just the thing.
