Facebook strips down to Lite site
Posted by ShopinJA in Science & Technology on September 11th, 2009
The world’s biggest social networking site has launched a slimmed-down version for people with slow or poor internet connections.
Facebook is working on other translations of its Lite site
Facebook has said the Lite site will be faster and simpler because it offers fewer services than the main site.
Initially it is meant to support users in developing countries and where bandwidth constraints make the current version too slow to use.
At the moment it is only available in India and the US.
The company said around 70% of its more than 250 million users were from outside America. Countries in Southeast Asia and Europe are seeing a massive increase in growth where fast internet connections are more common.
News that Facebook was testing the Lite site was first leaked in August.
‘Twitter-like’
The options on Facebook Lite are limited to letting users write on their wall, post photos and videos, view events and browse other people’s profiles. There are no apps or special boxes.
“It appears, at a quick glance, to be a better site for Facebook newbies or for anyone who finds the current site overwhelming and noisy,” said Rafe Needleman at technology website Cnet.
Twitter me this - Twitter me that

With the abundance of online social networking sites twitter seems to be the new craze among popular personalities both foreign and local, but in a nutshell twitter isn’t really 100% social networking, its more like text messaging on crack 
the simplicity of it puzzles allot of people making them criticize and ridicule twitter, but in my opinion people will always speak ignorantly and negatively about what they don’t truly understand. 
I am a daily user of twitter and i use it mainly for marketing, but at the same time being on twitter you get instant breaking news and/or happenings, and by instant i mean INSTANT sometimes even before the press, and to me having this at my disposal is a must.
