iPad gets video support from Facebook (though not HTML5)

Facebook sure knows how to make its mark on the mobile. After making its presence on all Mobile platforms with dedicated apps and contacts merge, we now have the iPad love from facebook. Though we are yet to see a dedicated FB app for the iPad, they have got the videos working for you. Without requiring any more browser plugins or hacks, the iPad vidoes now works in iPad safari. You will see the Quicktime logo when the video begins and the vidoe is played with the h.264 codec and not HTML 5. It seems that Facebook is still not converting to HTML5 like a few others but sticking to h.264. As long as it plays, its cheer for us 🙂

Youtube vidoe links still pop up the YouTube app though 🙂 Video demo below
