The company has said it\u2019s intended to help new users, especially people with with poor internet connections, have a better experience than they have had so far. The app is only live in the US and India, according to Facebook developer <a href=\"http:\/\/twitter.com\/blakeross\/status\/3896405217\">Blake Ross<\/a>, but a worldwide rollout doesn\u2019t seem too far away.<\/p>\n<p>As anyone who has tried to access Facebook on a slow connection already knows, features like photos can take forever to load, or even not load at all.<\/p>\n<p>But more generally, the design aesthetic of Lite is appealing. The news feed includes a simple top toolbar, just items from your friends and a few obvious buttons for posting updates or media. The profile page is similarly bare. However, there\u2019s no bottom toolbar for any third-party apps. There are currently only a few crucial in-house apps available. Facebook\u2019s own Photo and Video apps are located within the profile page, while Events is available in the top toolbar.<\/p><\/blockquote>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Via InsideFacebook Facebook has just launched a new version of the site, called Lite, to give users a simplified, faster-loading experience than the traditional www.facebook.com.
