You don't have to have a <a title="smartphone" href="http://www.pinstripemag.com/2011/05/smartphones-save-money-replace-gadgets.html">smartphone</a> to get onto one of the most popular services in the world, Facebook of course.  Everyone and their mother, literally is or will be or have been on it at sometime in their lives.

Casey Chan of Gizmodo gave us a good Laugh Out Loud with his article we quoted above. If you have any sympathy for the techno-peasants of the world, you would want to grant them what?  You guessed it, a dummied down java-based version of Facebook! If you can't say it better, quote someone else ;)  <em>"Now even people with crappy dumbphones can check facebook"</em> as Casey Chan so eloquently put it.  Cheers Casey...
