1) The about window is a primary source of information pertaining to version-ing information in most if not all software *INSTALLED* on a machine 2) facebook/twitter/gmail are web applications that are used *through* the browser, and as such do not require software to be installed 3) comparing the two, and determining that users (and developers) don't need a uniform way of accessing version information, across multiple software solutions, and operating systems, is a just poor judgement to say the very *VERY* least 4) As a developer myself, I like to keep tabs on the version numbers I have available (nice little text document on my desktop) as well as the change logs with each version (security audits make this necessary), and while I can admit that this isn't such a hard change, It isn't one that is necessary.
