In the process to maintain its position in the line of social networking sites, Facebook has been researching to make its website more efficient. Ways are being devised to make the site brisker so that its users do not have to spend more time navigating between the pages. Facebook Lite is mainly intended for users living in places having either no broadband or an expensive broadband. So that they can save bandwidth. Facebook Lite promises to be much faster than the existing version.

Facebook faces huge competition from Twitter, which has set its mark as one of the best social networking sites connecting people across the globe. Facebook has purchased Friend feed, one of the best know aggregator of web information for around $50million. The main reason for this acquisition probably is to benefit from FriendFeed’s technology and its real-time web approach. Facebook can also improve the site by using the latter’s powerful search product.

Facebook opened up its simplified version known as “Facebook Lite” to some of its users early this week to test its functioning. Also messages were sent to users who accessed the Facebook site inviting them to experiment the new Facebook Lite. Some users who had the chance to explore the Facebook Lite pages stated that it had features similar to that of Twitter in terms of posting comments and updates.

Facebook Lite promises to be brisker so that users can have easy access to the Status updates. It also assures that accepting “friend requests” and posting comments on walls would be easier. All said and done, Facebook Lite is still in its testing phase and not open to all users. Reports obtained so far state that Facebook Lite looks like a simplified version of Twitter & Friendfeed with comments enabled.
