My Band: Profile Pages for Bands and Musicians 4,909,527 +278,860 +6% Badoo, a years-old dating/social networking site, recently added a variety of Facebook integrations -- and it also ported user profiles from its site into Facebook, apparently increasing the number of potential date matches that Facebook users are seeing. The result, as you can see, is growth of more than 3.23 million new users in the past week. It now has 22.6 million MAU total, making it the seventh-largest app on the Facebook platform according to our AppData leaderboard on the matter. RootMusic's BandPage app, which we've been covering extensively in recent months, has continued to boom as more and more musicians look to create and fine-tune their Pages for users. It came in second after Badoo, gaining more than 1 million users in the past week to reach nearly 15 million MAU total -- it wasn't so long ago that the company was excited to announce the 10 million mark, so evidently things are continuing to go well. Check out our earlier reviews for more details. LivingSocial ran a massive deals campaign with its new investor Amazon last week, letting users buy an Amazon gift card worth $20 for half off. Aside from promoting its partner and saving users money, the result was also apparently nearly a quarter million new users to its relatively small Facebook app. Among the other non-games on the list today, Windows Live Messenger and Yahoo! Facebook Connect integrations continue to grow well. The former has grown steadily in recent months but the latter is only now appearing to boom. We'll take a look at Ravenwood Fair, 德州撲克(中文版) (Texas Hold 'Em, but in Chinese and by Boyaa, not Zynga) and other social games over on our sister site Inside Social Games.
