When it comes to alternative [Facebook][3] apps, Friendcaster checks in as one of the more robust options for [Android][4]. Now the app is getting a major status update thanks to a 5.0 makeover. Highlights touted by the Friendcaster team include design improvements, real-time notifications, higher resolution news feed images, the ability to tag more than one friend at a time in a post, a new check-in interface and memory improvements. The update -- which is compatible with Android 1.6 and higher -- also kicks off with a suite of themes in six fresh colors, with more in the works. After all, if you're gonna ignore yet another [Farmville][5] and Texas Hold'em request, you may as well do it in style.
