The TripAdvisor web integration took the No. 2 spot this week, due in part to a Facebook Sponsored Stories campaign to re-engage users.
Cross-platform name-that-tune app Song Pop moved up to No. 4, after a big viral boost this weekend.
Static HTML tab applications from Thunderpenny seem to be experiencing a small resurgence following a steep decline when Facebook removed the option to set third-party tabs as the default view for pages.
How Hipster Are You? and Yahoo! Toolbar made their debut among the top 20 gaining apps by MAU this week after an appearance on our top emerging apps list on Friday.
All data in this post comes from our traffic tracking service, AppData. Stay tuned for our look at the top weekly gainers by daily active users on Wednesday, and the top emerging apps on Friday.
