- LowROI, on 11/14/2007, -4/+101facebook + iphone + STUNNING = digg keyword overload for me.
- Username222, on 11/14/2007, -6/+79Facebook looks good on everything! The REAL trick is getting MySpace to look good on Anythning.
- joehewitt, on 11/14/2007, -6/+50This wasn't exactly the way I had hoped for our iPhone site to be announced, but what can you do. Don't bother visiting themob.facebook.com, it no longer exists as it was just a test site and not equipped for the traffic it suddenly received this morning. The official site should be live by tomorrow - check blog.facebook.com for news.
- TomRemixed, on 10/10/2007, -16/+47Yea I pretty much designed this. You're welcome.
- TomRemixed, on 10/10/2007, -4/+31Wow that was a total lie.
- superchink, on 10/10/2007, -3/+29anyone else having problems getting it to load?
- lo0ol, on 10/10/2007, -1/+24From the Mashable comments:
"Hi, I'm the guy at Facebook who built this. We haven't launched the site yet and themob.facebook.com was only for testing. Stay tuned, the official launch is coming soon."
I figured as much when I first saw the post... "themob.facebook.com" is a slightly strange choice of url for an iPhone app. Presumably it'll be up on iphone.facebook.com shortly... you get a different error message for that subdomain than you do with a random, incorrect string.
And yes, it does look really good on an iPhone, to the point where I'd rather spend most of my time using the iPhone app rather than the main site. Cleaner, less noise, less applications to clutter things up. Can't wait to see it officially launched. - kcap122, on 10/10/2007, -1/+21....because what we REALLY need is facebook anywhere, anytime.
- Falldog, on 10/10/2007, -3/+22I'm not surprised. They even have a pretty decent mobile version for us BlackBerry users.
- unloud, on 10/10/2007, -3/+19Young man, what's troubling you on the inside?
- leorcastillo, on 10/10/2007, -3/+18STUNNING would be seeing NAKED pictures of www.alessandraambrosio.com ON the iPhone ON Facebook. Facebook on the iPhone is just IMPRESSIVE. CAPITAL letters to draw hits is just ANNOYING.
- lesty420, on 10/10/2007, -6/+19looks good on an N95 too
- inactive, on 10/10/2007, -2/+15thing is that that link does not show any of the "stunningness"
also i have told you 1000000 times not to exaggerate :)
its just a web site that looks cool on iphone.
"stunning" would be if it was found out that key government officials were aliens, or that you could get free food forever without paying for it. - bouche, on 10/10/2007, -0/+11i won't click on anything on DIGG unless it is BREATHTAKING.
it's down anyway. so it did take my breath away. - jwaycuilis, on 10/10/2007, -2/+12You're correct, except for certain things such as Flash.
However, they never said it would hurt to make content *optimized* for the device - tidu, on 10/10/2007, -3/+13Dugg for *****.
amazing word - MonkeyFit, on 10/10/2007, -0/+10Hey, there are some very nice looking asses out there and it's appalling that you compare the way they look to myspace.
- Jeffrey903, on 10/10/2007, -1/+10According to the comments on Mashable, the site was created by Joe Hewitt (a developer for Firefox and Parakey, which was recently acquired by Facebook). He is also the creator of iUI for the iPhone - http://www.joehewitt.com/iui/
- thomas41546, on 10/10/2007, -0/+8May I see the source code?
- bpapa, on 10/10/2007, -3/+10If the iPhone could render websites as fast as a desktop, it would have been a hell of a lot more than $600 my friend.
- WhiteIce89, on 10/10/2007, -10/+17Hrm interesting.. I thought the iPhone didn't need to run the "mobile version" of the Internet.
- binorgog, on 08/07/2008, -1/+8A lot of stunning things in the world. This does not qualify. "Cute", "Fun", "Well Designed", Stunning, Not so much.
- Samtheman007, on 10/10/2007, -2/+8ummm, thats not what he was implying, and secondly the iphone has unlimited data not matter what, unless you hacked it.
- r3zonance, on 10/10/2007, -0/+6It can't be done I tell you! MySpace will always look like ass.
- breakflows, on 10/10/2007, -0/+6Electricity leak on the iPhone = STUNNING
- ethon, on 10/10/2007, -1/+7i do need that.
- ErBiC, on 10/10/2007, -1/+7It's up now... I don't have an iPhone, but it looks pretty good on a PC. Lots of AJAX and animated things.
http://iphone.facebook.com - divergentdave, on 10/10/2007, -0/+6No, he means he's going to use iphone.facebook.com from his regular browser, because of how clean it is.
- mojaam, on 10/10/2007, -2/+7I'm a month from my upgrade, and I'll be choosing between the N95 or iPhone. Any screenshots?
- krets, on 10/10/2007, -0/+5You mean smaller, quicker to "load" and not quite as satisfying of an experience?
- bpapa, on 10/10/2007, -0/+5It doesn't even have to do with Edge. Viewing Facebook on the iPhone is not as bad as viewing Digg on the iPhone, but it's close. There's too much javascript going on and that won't render very quickly on the handset. Nor sure it be expected to.
- nzknzknzk, on 10/10/2007, -4/+8Guys, this is the man who created this web app, don't digg him down!
- Ibanezfoo, on 10/10/2007, -1/+5I have something far more amazing and stunning than a piece of ***** iphone and facebook. Its called, get this, REAL LIFE.
- inactive, on 10/10/2007, -0/+4"TOTALLY DUDE!"
- neffy, on 10/10/2007, -3/+7this has nothing to do with rendering correctly, asshat. give your cheapass desktop an EDGE connection and suddenly realize why this is important.
- factoryjoe, on 10/10/2007, -1/+5If you don't have an iPhone, I collected some shots in iPhoney to give you an idea of how it looks.
http://flickr.com/photos/factoryjoe/sets/72157601448859006 - aazn, on 10/10/2007, -0/+4Why did Facebook even bother? You can't take something off the internet.
- codyg1985, on 10/10/2007, -0/+3Combining the iPhone and Facebook into one story = STUNNING
Having a traffic accident while using the iPhone to check Facebook = PRICELESS - HerrEisenheim, on 10/10/2007, -5/+8Must be easy to impress some people. It's hardly "stunning". Mediocre at best. There's something strangely pointless about viewing Facebook on a phone. I mean, unless you are stalking someone, why not just send them a text message, which takes like 5 seconds, instead of navigating around in Safari? This is the equivalent of logging into Yahoo! to use their contacts manager on the iPhone to make calls, instead of just using the phonebook in the damn phone. Wake me up when there is good app for my iPhone, or when Facebook can offer me something other than instant pestering and photo tagging.
- valona, on 10/10/2007, -0/+3Actually you do. Click the customise button at the end of the topic bar, and deselect Apple. Most Apple stories are then removed from your "viewing" experience. I did this for a while, but missed the hysteria to be honest. I find the anger and the passion generated over the products of a publically floated, multi-billion dollar company to be quite amusing. It helps me put things in perspective, no matter what is troubling me in life, I will never stoop to the level of threatening to murder someone because of the operating system, phone, mp3 player they use.
- r3zonance, on 10/10/2007, -1/+4Yes WhiteIce, you are perfectly correct. The iPhone does not NEED to run mobile version of the internet.
I'd generally prefer to use the lighterweight versions of pages, but there is quite a bit of functionality of Facebook missing here, that is only available in the full version. Which I can view correctly with the iPhone, if I so desire. - ffleming, on 10/10/2007, -2/+5It's a website on a phone. That will never, ever be "stunning" or anything close. Unless you're a pathetic shut-in, of course.
- shreyans, on 10/10/2007, -0/+3Yeah, but that's because the whole damn mashable site is blocked in Thailand, because one article on mashable MENTIONED a certain video on YouTube (which is also blocked).
Yes, I know about proxies but the concept is what irks me.
You guys in the US think you have it bad - peterman81, on 10/10/2007, -1/+4Cool, now I can look at people I don't talk to anymore more often.
- appleswitch, on 10/10/2007, -0/+2Think if it this way, now It'll hit the homepage twice. :-)
- DanH, on 10/10/2007, -0/+2and yet again, the iPhone, which was supposedly going to bring everyone the "full web" just makes people develop specialized versions of their sites for the phone. How is this different than BlackBerry again, apple?
- G_Raph, on 10/10/2007, -1/+3unlike digg, this site works great on many other ppcs. Thanks for screwing us over once again Kevin Rose.
- PromaneX, on 10/10/2007, -0/+2I couldn't get it to work on my N95 - I logged in and got the header links but they were half covered by a white box that went down the rest of the page, i couldn't click anything =(
- lesty420, on 10/10/2007, -2/+4I'd wait for the 2nd gen IPhone or wait for the new nokias to drop
- inactive, on 10/10/2007, -0/+2For some reason, your comment does not anger me. Thus, I shall answer with a calm style of writing.
Assuming you are using Firefox, you can get an extension called AdBlock. That bad boy will rip all the ads away, Flash, images, Google Adwords, you name it. Due to this fact, it is perhaps the most well known Firefox extension in existence. Now considering that Firefox is the browser of choice for most Diggers, and furthermore that most of them have AdBlock, it is considered idiotic, to say the least, for one to complain about any ads anywhere.
Have a nice day. -
