Yes: it’s not related to curriculum, you spent time on it, you did something you liked, and you learned from it.

It falls into the category of computers and programming. It is an EC as much as sports, photography, or community service is.

Definitely put that down on your college application. It will help a lot, especially when the ability to make stuff like Facebook apps are quite rare compared to some other ECs you see around.
