    This is not a replacment for the App Store.

    This is nice. I like the idea of an "AIO" (All In One) App Store. Its simple and easy to get around.

    You're right. It's not a replacement for the iOS App Store. I think of it as Facebook's own App Store, which right now helps you discover the best social apps available on/via Facebook, be it on the site directly or iOS/Android apps that utilize the Facebook Login feature. But I assume it will also contain the Facebook paid apps that will now launch.

    An even better way to think of it is this:
    Modzilla Firefox has add-ons i.e App Store for the Browser.

    Facebook now has add-ons i.e App Store for Facebook such as Words With Friends, Yahoo articles etc.

    This is great!. I was stuck in App Store for some reasons. Facebook did really good to launch cross-platform appsand I think soon many others will introduce this.
