Facebook launched Facebook for iPhone 3.5 yesterday with a new interface exactly like Twitter’s iPhone app. It’s not just the status update bar that’s the same, it’s also the exact position of the add-friend,  location and photo icons.  Twitter’s mobile designer Brian Haggerty also noticed this and tweeted “Seriously Facebook?”.

Coincidentally, Brian Haggerty was working on mobile at LinkedIn when LinkedIn was accused of copying Facebook’s iPhone app UI. Revenge is a dish best served cold with a UI eh?

If you didn’t know what the old Facebook status bar on its iPhone App looked like, here’s it.

Yeah, you can see the imitation better now. What do you think about this? Perhaps Zuck hasn’t seen what Twitter’s app looks like. Leave us a comment.
