Facebook 3.0 – a couple of weeks on

I do like the more sensible layout of Facebook 3.0 for the iPhone. I’ve not yet made any “shortcuts”. It sounds sensible, but I can’t quite think of what I’d need to shortcut.

On my old phones, before I inherited this iPhone (which it looks as if I will keep, yippee!), I would shortcut two things: a calculator and the “ringtone adjuster”. My two most popular non-calling functions. The calculator to calculate price breaks or percentages, the ringtone adjuster to turn the darn things to vibrate. None of the cheap phones I used to carry ever had an easy way to pop into silent mode on the way in and out of meetings.

I’ve had a few problems with keeping up with people, but Facebook has not suffered any problems with updates to the phone that weren’t reflected on the site proper.

And I love the built-in browser and the more sensible notifications. And I might be mistaken, but I think it’s respecting my wishes with regards to (sorry!) frivolous updates. I don’t need six thousand MafiaWars updates, especially on my phone. :)

Just one more thing – let me play Lexulous without needing their iPhone application! Maybe Facebook for the iPhone 3.1?
