Facebook Lite App – Very Lite But Very Nice

Facebook has officially launched its Lite app for Android users in India and the Philippines. It’s designed to provide the social network’s core experience reliably on spotty and slow mobile connections.

Facebook says its Lite app is quicker than its main mobile app over 2G because its servers take on the burden of optimizing content.

Imagine, the app is only 430 KB, making it quicker to download. It includes push notifications, and messaging just like the Facebook app.

It’s my first time to use it and it is very convenient, my feed loads up right away. It really differs to the main Facebook app in terms of speed although it lacks some features like video streaming. I’m also happy that I can still manage my Facebook Pages without logging in to the separate app.

Currently, the app is only downloadable via Android. Facebook says it will roll out the app in other markets over the coming weeks and months.

Thank you for calling..

With a smiling face and confidence, Juan greeted his 25th customer who’s mad and frustrated in fixing their internet.

Can you please hold for a few minutes while checking on this?

Juan suddenly put down his headset. Slouch on his seat then sigh.

Thank you for calling. Have a nice day!

Those phrases and sentences are his daily oath in his work. 9 hours a day, 5 days a week, Juan is spending his life repeatedly going back and forth to his office – most likely a ward of people in headset facing computers monitor. This is the life in Call Center.

In this site, I will share Juan’s thoughts and experiences working in BPO industry. Check it out!
