FaceBook on the Apple iPhoneApple’s iPhone and the Facebook website, two of the most hyped technology products of the year, have joined forces.  As a result, Facebook the widely popular web 2.0 app is now viewable on the Apple iPhone cellphone with its own login.  Netvibes, released its own iPhone website this week which is also quite usable.

Bloggers on the Internet have said that the FaceBook iPhone site is the gold standard for iPhone customized pages.  The site uses javascript for page refreshes.  While navigating the site some lag is experienced which is a problem of the iPhone.

Navigation tabs on the main page are Home, Profile, Friends and Inbox at the top of the website.  To see a user profile all one needs to do is to tap their name, wall or photos by a horizontal scrolling menu.

New websites always have bugs to be worked out, which is also the case for the FaceBook iPhone page.  One bug that appears is the occasional javascript error which can crash Safari.  Once fully operational, many start-up companies will look to emulate FaceBook’s success.
