Facebook on Mobiles & Smartphones

These days ‘social networking’ sites are very very popular and being talked about all the time amongst the computer/internet savy community. My family have found it, shall I say interesting, to keep up to speed on what our Son Ollie’s been up to whilst away at Uni for his first year!! Say no more :-) Facebook is probably one of the biggest ‘Social Networking’ arenas and is also available on many mobile and smartphone devices. I’ve used Facebook on an iPod Touch (over a Wi-Fi connection) but now use it primarily on my Blackberry 8820. Facebook is freely available from the ‘Blackberry App Store’ and Apple/iPod Store. When you open Facebook on a mobile device, it refreshes, to show you latest highlights of what your Facebook pals have posted, in the form of "What’s on your mind". It also facilitates: View Status Updates, Notifications, Upload a Photo, Friends, Add a Friend, Write on a Wall (be careful, this is open for others to read!!!) and Send a Message. Being virtually permanently online with Facebook on a Blackberry, it’s another good way of being in contact with friends and loved ones and you’ll get alerted as soon as someone makes contact with you on Facebook.
