Prosper Launches “Real” Facebook App

From “Prosper Jon”… (I am on Facebook and I am using this application.)

—-

We recently launched a beta Facebook application called “Prosper”. This is one of the upcoming features alluded to by Andrew in his Sep 12 site update announcement.

As some of you know, we’ve experimented with the Facebook Platform in the past by developing a game called Fantasy Banker.

This application isn’t a game, but a more directed effort to bridge Facebook and the Prosper marketplace.

By integrating Prosper with your social graph, you can make the marketplace even better and social lending more social.

The application also allows you to share your Prosper activity with your Facebook network, even if they aren’t already Prosper users. Once you’ve added the application, simply using Prosper can inform your friends about loan requests you’ve made, or bids you’ve placed. Here’s an example of what the stories look like when they show up in Facebook’s news feed:
