Facebook Acqui-Hires Mac and iOS Developer Acrylic Software

Facebook just acquired Acrylic Software, a Vancouver, CA-based startup that developed two desktop and mobile apps: Pulp, a personalized newspaper app for Mac and iPad, and Wallet, an app that lets you "sync, store and secure your digital life" for Mac and iOS. Both of these apps got a good amount of press when they launched, but for the most part, the company has flown under the radar. Acrylic Software's founder Dustin MacDonald says that Facebook did not acquire the company's apps though and that Wallet and Pulp "will continue to remain available for download and purchase in their current form." The team will move to San Francisco.
