Applications ranging from friendship to Open Graph to “Twilight” to job searching made our list of emerging Facebook apps by monthly active users this week. However, much of the list was taken up by applications that help users manage their Facebook pages via tabs, iframes, sweepstakes and more.
The apps grew from between 110,000 and 310,000 MAU, based on AppData, our data tracking service covering traffic growth for apps on Facebook. We define emerging applications as those that ended with between 100,000 and 1 million MAU in the past week.

Shufflr, a daily video post, as well as Netflix’s Open Graph integration made the list. An app promoting the release of the next “Twilight” DVD, Breaking Dawn – Part 1, grew. Then there was a mobile messenger, LiveProfile, dating app Twoo and professional Open Graph integration find.ly that grew by 110,000 MAU, despite the fact that only users that own accounts can use the app.
