Is Facebook Lite Working For Facebook?

Is Facebook Lite Working For Facebook?

It has been slightly more than a month since the launch of Facebook Lite, a stripped down version of Facebook to serve areas where broadband connection speed is slow.

Facebook Suffering From SLOW growth. Lite To Rescue?

What an exciting day for the Facebook team! Besides the introduction of a new @ tagging feature on its status updates, it has also officially launched the highly anticipated Facebook Lite. Like how we understood it to be, Facebook Lite is a stripped down version of Facebook. It preserved only its core features, including status updates (duh!), access to profiles stalking and advertisements.

Facebook has been quick to learn and adopt cool features introduced by other social media sites. It's "like" function for one, was inspired by FriendFeed, which it eventually acquired. Just 12 hours ago, we saw Facebook treating Twitter's @ tagging feature as its own. The feature has enabled Twitter users to tag their friends in their tweets and has become the natural way for one to one conversations. Being such a simple and yet brilliant communication method, it is no wonder Facebook finds it irresistible! How Facebook's @ Tagging Works Facebook's Engineer, Tom ...

Facebook Lite a Direct Competition to Twitter?

TechCrunch and Mashable are fast to release the news! Facebook Lite beta is now underway. It is supposedly a lighter and faster version of Facebook. To put it simply, one might say that Lite is used as a direct challenge against Twitter by being like Twitter. With its recent FriendFeed acquisition and launch of real time search function and now Facebook Lite, it is no doubt that Facebook has all these planned out way ahead of time. What could Facebook possibly come out with next? Only a few thousand users are selected to ...
