Facebook lite is basically a stripped down version of it’s more encompassing counterpart.  Facebook says, “Facebook Lite is a faster, simpler way to keep in touch with your friends. If you like it, you may choose to use it instead of the regular Facebook.”  By simplerthey mean dumbed down.  The site is literally a bare-bones version of Facebook that will allow older folks and younger kids (why are they even registered on Facebook, anyway) to join in on the fun that is social networking and such.  The site is easier to navigate with larger buttons and less clutter.  However, features are missing from the standard Facebook website and it’s up to you to decide if it’s worth doing away with functionality for simplicity.  Check it out for yourself at http://lite.facebook.com/.
