Roughly a month ago we reported that Facebook for Windows Phone will get a pretty major update soon. Today, I’m happy to tell that this update is going out to customers! Fire up the Windows Phone Marketplace for a download.

Changes in Facebook for WP version 2.5:

  • Threaded messaging: Full Facebook threaded messaging including group messaging, all in a beautiful Metro style design
  • Tagging: Now you can tag friends and locations in your posts in the ‘with’ and ‘at’ format
  • Delete posts and comments: Use the tap and hold context menu to delete posts and comments from your wall
  • Active links in posts: Tap on links in posts to go directly to the content
  • Updates to the photo comments and likes page: The photo comments and likes page has been updated to match the posts comments and likes page. You can see a hint of the image at the top of the page, pull down and you can see the whole thing
  • And finally, by popular demand…you can now ‘like’ comments!
