The bookmarking technology is not expected to be integrated into Facebook.

The team at Spool is experienced with and dedicated to streamlining the way that individuals utilize the internet on smart phones, an area that Facebook has expressed interest in improving. The post from Spool about the deal suggests that their team will be continue to focus on mobile app development on Facebook’s tech team.
