Twittering is not my kind of thing. I generally spend very little time on social networks and the only one I check every now and again is Facebook.
Facebook is currently testing a simplified version of its social network service aimed at countries where internet bandwidth is limited. But it may prove popular with other users tired of the currently over-fussy website.
The new system, named Facebook Lite, focuses on messaging and user updates and now looks far more similar to rival micro-blogging service Twitter.
It is available to a handful of users in the UK by going to lite.facebook.com. However, at present a preview of the service is only widely available in India and the US.
