Pope Benedict XVI has entered the world of social networking sites and smartphones with a Vatican portal that includes Facebook and iPhone applications.The Pope2You Web site was launched Thursday and allows Facebook users to send virtual postcards with photos of Benedict. An application for iPhone and iPod Touch gives surfers video and audio news on his travels and speeches, as well as on Catholic events worldwide.
The new portal is the latest update in the Vatican's efforts to broaden the pope's audience... bla bla bla
I understand that the first facebook picture the holy father uploaded was a snapshot of him and some of the cardinals tossing back umbrella drinks during their latest trip to the Hard Rock Cafe in Panama City.

Now there's a waste of programming time and effort if I ever saw one.

Its not like what is always wanted. The new trend always asks for something new. I found a site called http://objectdevcorp.com provides special kind of custom apps for different purpose.
This is where I can get what I want.
