WSJ:

Some app developers and analysts believe Facebook’s underlying motivation is to position itself as an alternative development platform for programmers that now tailor mobile apps specifically for Apple’s iOS operating system or Google Inc.’s Android. Technology blog TechCrunch reported that Facebook is working on a mobile platform dubbed “Project Titan” that was designed to bypass Apple by using the HTML5 technology that works with the iPhone and iPad’s mobile browser, Safari.

Well, they totally fucked up the project name — but at least that was a real Facebook project. “Titan” was the codename for what becomes Messages. “Spartan” is the name they’re looking for here.

Also, I’m still confused by the WSJ’s linking rules. They link to their own stuff, but no one else, even when citing them.
