Facebook launches iPhone portal

Filed under: Software, Internet Tools, iPhone

Tossing their hat into a quickly expanding ring, Facebook has launched a powerful portal designed specifically for the iPhone (http://iphone.facebook.com). Offering quick access to key Facebook areas and tools, the entire UI is built to mimic the increasingly popular iPod/iPhone ’slide right’ approach whenever you drill down into portions of the site. While it seems very usable, even over EDGE, I am still a bit disappointed about some missing features. The ability to join a group, for example, is restricted to desktop computers; you can’t join a group you saw some friends join on your iPhone.

Aside from those minor complaints though, this is a very impressive web app that I’m sure will have iPhone-toting Facebook junkies wasting spending even more time at the site.
