Facebook Lite goes Live

Facebook unveiled a new down sized version of its website on Wednesday, August 12. Eventhough the release was intended to a small group of selected testers, it was exposed to a larger set of users.

According to Facebook, the Lite edition is a fast-loading, simplified version of Facebook that enables people to post comments, accept friend requests and look at photos and status updates. Facebook Lite is being tested in India and other countries where new users are flooding to the service. Invitations to take part in a private test of ‘Facebook Lite’ reached a variety of U.S. bloggers only to have the enclosed links to be available to everyone online.

The screen shots of the new version capturedFacebook-Lite and posted online revealed a Facebook page devoted to fresh comments and updates from friends in a style that could challenge the real-time interplay on Twitter.

Facebook had announced on Monday that it had acquired FriendFeed, a startup which allows members to see what their friends are doing online and share content. FriendFeed has been described as a potential rival to Twitter in its ability to conduct real-time search, an area where Facebook has been seeking to expand.

Is the facebook trying to prove that, insecure +Twitter=Facebook. Facebook may have many apps to survive in the ocean, but what if it is offering insecurity to its user.

By the new improved Facebook Lite, it could offer more feeds from friends, and other user in a contensed way.. People you need to worry a Lot when you post a content that can affect other users,..
