A quick look at Facebook on the iPhone
November 4th, 2007Facebook has undoubtedly becoming an overwhelmingly popular social networking website. A couple of months ago, Facebook released a special interface for iPhone and iPod touch users. I got a chance to c
heck it out, and here are my thoughts:
When first arriving, most things are familiar. A long list of news (status updates, new friend establishments, etc.) is shown. From there, you can navigate to your profile, friends, or your message inbox. Also, there is a special area just for updating your status. It’s great to easily keep your up to date when you’re on the go.
For the most part, you are able to do the things you can do on the regular site. One of the main things missing is that you cannot comment on a photo or view photo comments. I’m not sure why this wasn’t added to the iPhone interface.
For the things you can do: post/view wall posts, view basic profile information, look at posted pictures– everything you’d need to do on a social networking site.
Overall, Facebook did a nice job making their site iPhone optimized; it looks great. So if you’re a Facebook junkie and have an iPhone, give it a try– point your iPhone Safari browser to http://iphone.facebook.com.
