OK, I admit it, I’m a Facebook addict. To me, it’s better than Twitter and allows me to keep in touch with a lot of people. They launched Facebook Lite today, a streamlined version (no apps!) that runs really quickly. I am tempted to use it more than the main site. To go back to the main site, just use regular Facebook.

It’s missing a few features, but they’re working on it. You can always revert to the normal site for more complicated features (and to ice that last gangster in mafia wars).

What happened to Facebook Poke? Noone uses it anymore. Did it really have any purpose but to remind people to check Facebook in it’s infancy?
