PayPal officially launches on facebook!

Because a huge percentage of freshman gets their first bank account and first credit card in college, there is huge potential for financial institutions to leverage facebook as more than a advertising channel but also a point of integration. Paypal (amazing how fast they got this out given what I know of their dev process) surprisingly jumped in first before the likes of obopay and kushcash. Of course the app is a little low on utility but I’m sure a Paypal PM somewhere is using it to learn more about user behavior and other potential applications (wesabe clone?).





OK, I’ve been reading your blog for about 30 minutes…so far it’s been very entertaining.
Man, you are one smart guy!
I liked the one about you lying about your age — thinking 2 years would make a difference. Very funny!
