You can Now Play the Famous Angry Birds Game on Facebook

The famous Angry Birds game is now available as a free version on social network Facebook.

In the game, players use catapults to fire infuriated birds at pigs hiding inside buildings made of planks.

Intelligence Testing Through Facebook
Researchers from the Spanish National Research Council (CSIC) have come out with a web application capable of testing the visual intelligence of Internet users through Facebook.

The Facebook game, however, allows users to pay for extra birds and other in-game extras.

The website game is similar to the iPhone app. The only difference is players have to use a mouse to sling birds across the game's landscapes rather than a finger, the Daily Mail reported.

Peter Vesterbacka, chief marketing officer of game-making company Rovio, said he hoped up to 40 percent of Facebook users would pay for in-game extras.
