Facebook have launched a new version of their
iPhone app, version 3.2. This add's Place's to their service in the US. The service is similar to
Foursquare but (and Facebook stresses) the Facebook service is limited to your Facebook friends. In fact you have strict control over which friends or lists can see your location. Despite Facebook's tight privacy controls privacy groups are concerned that geotagging your location onto the internet is a step too far.
Version 3.2 also brings
Twitter for iPhone (formerly Tweetie 2) style "Pull Down to Update", which is a neat improvement.

Mashable.
EDIT: Facebook for iPhone is now version 3.2.1 following bug fixes.
