FaceBook Lite Now Available WorldWide
September 11th, 2009 5:05 PM | by Jeff Bordeaux | 3 Comments
For some reason I always associate dial-up connections with Grandmas. I actually know somebody’s Grandma that has a FaceBook account. All ignorance aside, FaceBook Lite is now available worldwide for those out there who wanna stay connected with family and friends but have a less than stellar internet connection.
FaceBook Lite was in Beta testing all last month and as of yesterday became a legit site ready for public consumption. Encompassing a more streamlined structure (sans 3rd-party applications) with less features, FaceBook Lite will run faster and be more accessible for those new to the service or in countries that have bandwidth limitations.
Those of you with regular FaceBook accounts are welcome to seamlessly transfer over to FaceBook Lite if you like it better.
Now only if they could dumb down Myspace a bit.

I dont think facebook will actually get rid of their ‘heavier’ version and serve the light version to all their audiences. Rather it woud be a split amongst facebook community – some will want to go for the lighter version and others would like to stay with the original one (specially application users).
