Well actually we can access facebook with a few way. One is trough normal access, facebook.com. For those which slow internet connection you can access the site with lite.facebook.com. But if you want to access them with a very slow connection or simply want to access them from mobile phone, you access them from m.facebook.com. From this three, which do you actually use the most. As for me, i usually access from home with the normal facebook.com, but in the office i usually access them with m.facebook.com since my office internet connection feel really slow. How about you?

Since we have dsl connection, it is cheaper to use facebook.com and the connection is a lot faster. I've tried using mobile but the page loads really slow so it's really a disadvantage although it's a bit convenient. But I can just bring my laptop if ever I need to go out and look for a place where WiFi is available.

Yes, if you DSL then you should use facebook.com instead of mobile facebook or facebook lite since DSL connection seem run more faster. Well, i think mobile facebook load more faster then the other, i don't know why you say it is load very slow. Anyway, thanks for your participation in this discussion.

O really? Well that is very strange, anyway, if it happened then it is happened. Thanks for sharing with us, maybe you should change your Internet service provider, try take a faster one. DSL should have speed that good enough to open a facebook page instantly, if it cannot open m.facebook, then it is must be very slow then. Thanks for responding.

I guess it still depends on the network that is providing the connection. It's not slow all the time but there are a few times that the page loads very slow that it seems to get stuck up.

Well thanks for your respond. Facebook lite is actually gone now. Maybe because people rarely use them since the current facebook doesn;t take much bandwith and quite easy to accesss. If they want to save bandwith, people will access m.facebook. So facebook lite seems useless and in the end, facebook decide just to shut down them. Thanks.

I mostly use facebook at home so needless to mention I use the main website www.facebook.com. When I use it on my mobile, I type in the same website, but I think it automatically detects that I am using a phone and loads up the site that is designed for small screens of mobile phones. I never knew that there was a lite version of facebook available for computers, so thanks for sharing that.

Yes, the main web site actually the place where many facebook user access facebook from computer. And with mobile phone you usually will be directed to mobile facebook since facebook detect that you are accessing from mobile tools, although you still can access mobile facebook from computer by writing m.facebook in the browser url. About lite facebook, is actually facebook for PC that are made specially for PC with slow internet connection, but i never actually use them since i prefer m.facebook for PC with slow internet connection. Thanks

I tried the lite facebook last week. I didn't like it. Maybe because I am more used to the classic one. A lot of features are missing. Though I must admit it runs pretty well on lite. But then I would still go for the classic one.

Yes, facebook lite has many of the regulare facebook feature remove to make accessing the site more faster. I also don't really like it since the view is different and if it is for slow connection, i prefer the mobile facebook. Any way, thanks for responding for this discussion.

Well it is only cheap when you use mobile phone or internet connection that based on how much KB you used. If you are a PC user, there is rarely internet connection that count internet fee by how many KB your use. So i think that's only apply for mobile use. Thanks
