"They treat iPhone apps the way they treat the music they sell through iTunes. Apple is the channel; they own the user; if you want to reach users, you do it on their terms. The record labels agreed, reluctantly. But this model doesn't work for software. It doesn't work for an intermediary to own the user. The software business learned that in the early 1980s, when companies like VisiCorp showed that although the words "software" and "publisher" fit together, the underlying concepts don't. Software isn't like music or books. It's too complicated for a third party to act as an intermediary between developer and user. And yet that's what Apple is trying to be with the App Store: a software publisher. And a particularly overreaching one at that, with fussy tastes and a rigidly enforced house style."

Damn, why can't it be available everywhere?
- Manuel Mas
SO much nicer. I may actually use FB now. IF they add nothing more than the Friend lists/filter (why is that missing?).
- Jess
It is available anywhere if you switch your language to English (US)
- Louis Simoneau
@Fajar : you still need to go to lite.facebook.com (just that that address redirects to regular facebook if your language is other than US english)
- Louis Simoneau
Profile stream not only shows one's own posts, but every item one has Liked or Commented on - this is nice, IMO. *Edit - I think it just expands the previous small font "Activity" reports.
- Kurt Starnes
I've definitely got it. Much faster than regular FB. But there's a lot of stuff that still doesn't work, though (e.g., settings), and my profile page contains only my status updates. It would be better if it had auto refresh, of course.
- Dennis Jernberg
This is available everywhere but to selective users.
- Kol Tregaskes
If it is available for a country, it is available for everyone on that country. There is no such thing like "selective users".
- Ozgur Demir
I don't have access, so it's not available to everyone yet.
- Kol Tregaskes
loving it - the only thing i miss are the posts from imported sites
- barbarars
You're just connecting a website, how can it decide what page to send you even before you login? the only deciding mechanism is the location you are connecting from, and if it is one of the countries that is available... you're all set... if you are using a fancy Internet connection (or proxy) to show you from another location, it might be the reason.
- Ozgur Demir
I know people in the UK who have access but I don't have access. So yes it is selective users.
- Kol Tregaskes
again, check your Internet connection. As I said, there is NO deciding mechanism other than "where you are connecting from.."..
- Ozgur Demir
Yes there is but if you change your language settings to English (US) it's supposed to work.
- Kol Tregaskes
Kol's right. It's selected users and invited users only. There's an ad in Facebook Lite for me telling me "You have 2 Facebook Lite Beta invitations" but clicking through says "Enter two people who are not already Facebook members" and then pre-populates the message box with: "There's a new version of Facebook called Facebook Lite. It's easier to use and I think you'd enjoy it. Only a few people in the world are able to use Facebook Lite right now, but I got you this invitation so you can try it out!"
- Tony Ruscoe
I'll wait for an invite or for a English (UK) version. :-)
- Kol Tregaskes
Ozgur, this happens a lot with other services, for example, Gmail and Google Reader have opened up features to selective users in batches. It's not location dependent, just luck of the draw. :-)
- Kol Tregaskes
Oh god.. I even explained it technically.. but I guess I am unable to do it...anyway.. believe whatever you want.
- Ozgur Demir
@resnum It's down to invites or changing the language setting to English (US).
- Kol Tregaskes
Kol, if you clear all your cookies and log out of Facebook, then go to http://lite.facebook.com, does it show you a login for Facebook Lite, or does it redirect to the main Facebook page? If you can get the Lite login page but not Facebook Lite after you actually provide some login info, then it is probably, as you say, user-based, since they're making the differentiation after you...
more...
- Brian Chang
Brian, but others in the UK have access, i.e. someone nearby me. :-)
- Kol Tregaskes
Yeap, it may be all about cookies. I cleared them away this morning and now I have access. This is truly a bug btw.
- Burcu Dogan
Kol, it Might be on the language, cause I have access from belgium because I selected US english and not UK english, that might be the difference, play in your language settings for that..
- Jaap Willem
Jaap, sure but it's no location based like Ozgur is suggesting.
- Kol Tregaskes
It is location based like I "explained".
- Ozgur Demir
Clearly it's not as you can access it by simply changing your language.
- Kol Tregaskes
no, it's not.. maybe they wanted to do it but fucked up somewhere sth.. but it's not location because normally belgium is the last country to be incorporated :)
- Jaap Willem
great to hear that kol, enjoy, it makes it a lot better..
- Jaap Willem
My facebook lite, default language is English US, no invite needed, it just opened for me. Kol i would love to send you an inivite but i seriously don't know where to find.

If a country is not supported, whatever language you make.. it's not gonna work. btw, this is my last comment about it, my alter ego reminded me that I already told that guy "believe whatever you want" two times. Cheers.
- Ozgur Demir
FYI, I'm seeing Lite in Australia too.
- Neil Saunders
Works for me now as I've changed the language setting, when I switch back to UK it doesn't work. Not sure how else to explain to you that it's nothing to do with location, Ozgur. :-)
- Kol Tregaskes
sorry about it Ozgur, I understand your frustration about it, but there's something what is not working maybe on the location IP filter not workinig? I'm happy about it though, thank you guys for this version

I would rather everyone be anonymous than no one.
- jeneane sessum
Gerard: as I said in the other thread this would be impossible to enforce so I wouldn't worry about it too much.
- Robert Scoble
I commented on your blog: I think anonymity is both a horrible thing and a great tool, it depends on how it's used. In some countries complete anonymity is needed, otherwise they would be put to death or jail. I find its far more respectable when someone puts a real name and face to their opinion, though it isnt always needed.
- Colby Olson
Robert: I just think it's interesting that you want to abolish anonymity, that in itself is an odd thing to say, I suppose. Perhaps you could explain your reasoning?
- Colby Olson
Robert I think we all realize it would not be enforceable but what I'm going after is the idea behind it - that *were it enforceable*, it would be a good thing. To me, the underlying idea that anonymous speech is a bad thing and should be eliminated is rather authoritarian and terrifying.
- Anthony Citrano
Colby: everything that I have seen negative on the Internet is due to anonymity. Can you link to one positive thing? Mini Microsoft but even that would be much better if the guy who wrote it would sign his name.
- Robert Scoble
Anthony: well, I don't see it as a good thing. I have freedom of speech already and would die to defend that. Anonymity is for cowards.
- Robert Scoble
Robert, speaking out on the internet against oppressive governments is not a bad thing. And as I have stated previously, many revolutions start in anonymity. Again, rules of absolutism don't allow for both sides. Anonymity is a tool and it can be used for good and bad.
- Tim Finucane
Kind of a night of drastic comments from the Scobleizer, huh?? Everything negative on the internet is due to anonymity. Yikes thats a whole new round of overstatement. I love following you Robert and agree way more often than not but that's silly.
- Cody Heitschmidt
tim: what revolution started with anonymity? Certainly NOT the American one.
- Robert Scoble
It most definitely did start with secret meetings. The crown didn't know identities until after things got under way.
- Tim Finucane
Robert: You just spawned numerous blog posts and threads with that one. I agree with you up to a point. One of the two that I have blocked on FF was determined to be a troll and supposedly anon. However, there are many countries that speaking up and signing on the dotted line will get both your head and hand chopped off.
- Mathew A. Koeneker
Cody is right. I did overstate that and I am sorry about that.
- Robert Scoble
Robert... i would follow you into the fire.. and here is why we all follow you: Your are passionate. Sometimes it gets in your way because you overstate things but then you admit you are wrong. A guy with 30,000 followers could be big headed enough not to admit something he said wasn't quite right. It's cool that a little guy in Ks can make a contrary statement at you and not just get blocked and you roll over him. Now admit you were wrong on the rule against anonymity too. lol just kidding.
- Cody Heitschmidt
The Internet is and should be about choice. You should be able to choose your level of anonymity. It is not one shoe fits all.
- Jauder Ho
Robert -- There is legitimate reason for anon speech, especially on the internet. What I think you really want is a "Personal Global Internet Filter" that allows the removal of the ugliest side-effects. Even looking to the American revolution, pen names and aliases were used countless times by the likes of Thomas Jefferson, et al. There is a legitimate purpose to it... the statement that no revolution was started by anonymous is a bit of a stretch.
- Mark Philpot
There are a ton of reasons for a person to use a pseudonym on the internet. Especially when you look at people in other countries who can only speak by being "nameless". I even have reasons for using a name that isn't my real name.
- Candace
Don't admit you were wrong on the rule unless you believe it... until you believe ! hehe lol Great freaking discussion who started this whole mess with the rule comment?
- Cody Heitschmidt
I believe it was started by Robert's response to Laura Fitton's question: "What one "rule" would you make about the Internet?"
- Tim Finucane
i'm sorry he's wrong or right depending i've been batting this question lately and i use the internet not to shield who i am but to get people to talk to me who wouldn't do to disability. and if i ever meet any net folks in RL my hope is that they will be over it quicker due to knowing I'm capable and cool to begin with
- Cecil Sandus
To all those under pseudonyms: Why? Are you truly in fear of reprisal? @Dtrizzle a link to your blog profile quickly reveals you. @Corvida do you have a reason?
- Mathew A. Koeneker
@Robert Scoble (scobleizer): What's so negative about my blog? Well, other than the fact that I don't apply myself. Sorry, there've been too many firings and too many "we won't hire you" situations because of uptight control freaks in power who can't stand employees who have their own minds. Anyone who really desires it can find out who MiniMage is, but I feel the better for not broadcasting my real name, and so do my parents.
- MiniMage TKDteacher of FF
from NoiseRiver
One rule for the internet is that all data is equal. The second rule is that there are no other rules. I think Scoble's idea of not anonymity is becoming more a reality with people's lives becoming intertwined with their online identity. I would like to preserve anonymity for whistle blowers, etc. Anonymity is a tool that can be used or abused.
- Erik Weese
Pseudonyms mean nothing. People do find out who you are. I spent two days in a courtroom reading my blog entries aloud that were posted under a pseudonym. If you don't want people to read what you write, buy a pen and a blank journal and stick it under your mattress.
- Trish R
MiniMage many many more people have been hired for their blogs than fired for them and I can't think of an instance where someone who was fired wasn't behaving stupidly. We have a whole chapter in our book about that.
- Robert Scoble
yes Dtrizzle that makes sense to me and Trish as for your idea it's an oldie but a goodie...
- Cecil Sandus
corvida isn't anonymous. I have talked with her on the phone. Minimicrosoft is pretty anonymous but I know at least one person who knows who he is.
- Robert Scoble
Dtrizzle - The bit on your educational background while perfect for a resume can provide an easy way to start skip-tracing you. Not that I am. Just one of the little tricks I learned where tech meets accounting.

it is amazing the conversations that can start with a simple word or two. I am at a wedding with people who have left Iran to get the freedom of speech so understand well the problems with using your real name. One guy here was in Iranian prisons for years. He is not afraid to stand up in public against injustice.

@Robert Scoble (scobleizer): Do you remember the Chronicle of Higher Education article where someone talked about being on an interview committee?

Scoble I think he was referring to the fact that I don't use my real name online at all. As for the person who asked why, because I don't want people Googling me. I like to keep my personal life separate from my online life. Same person, different interactions and I don't want them overlapping in any way, shape, or form.
- Corvida
@Corvida - Why keep yourself so fragmented? Then you have to remember who you with whom. I am with Robert for the most part on this one. You instantly gain more respect from me if your are proud enough of your name to attribute ALL of your actions whether in the VW or RW to it. You are an American are you not? Unless, you have a TS like my folks then who or what are you hiding from. Telling me that it is just a personal choice is a cop out. @Dtrizzle gives some valid rationale for his decision.
- Mathew A. Koeneker
There are certain place on the net that you NEED anonymity !! Take a look at some Forums that ONLY focus on vulnerability disclosures. Each and every one of them is only known by a handle. Chances that you actually associate a handle w/ real name /face is near impossible.
- Peter Dawson
I could argue the same. Most in my situation do take that approach. My disease is just that a disease. It is what it is. Like I commented earlier there can be valid reasons; I just wanted to hear Corvida's rationale both from a personal interest as she is just another human being as well as from the pov of the well known blogger.
- Mathew A. Koeneker
Interesting convo. I actually talked to Mark Hopkins about this. He brought his anon handle into his identity. I've kept mine apart. I don't agree with no one being anonymous; I happily existed online for years and can still write about personal issues and my children without compromising their (or my) privacy.
- Cyndy
I vote for anonymity. If you are anonymous and threatening though, realize that I also support using every tracking method possible to make a community safer. People can not yell "FIRE" in a crowded room. I can not call my neighbor a "RAPIST" just because I feel like it. Regulated Free Speech is ok. Unregulated free speech is not, just as I can not go around town physically hitting anyone I want to ("Freedom of Action").
- Mitchell Tsai
The vast majority of my college friends (Harvard 1982-89, age 40-50) are still petrified of Facebook due to Corvida's concerns - and I have mostly techy friends.

@Robert people tend to act differently online than they do in real-life, anonymous or not. They perceive a disconnect between their online profile and life. Makes people be more direct, confrontational, and sometimes hostile. They don't feel bound by the same social rules (have respect for each other).
- Alexander van Elsas
I can fully understand that some wish to be anonymous on the web. But thinking that the things you do online are disconnected from your offline life is stupid. I am not anonymous online and I am aware that my interactions are always visible.
- Alexander van Elsas
I'll just add here that I don't agree that we should chop off our whole arm but if someone can point the finger and label me negatively knowing full well that I am public and not hiding behind a fake avatar, I should be able to see who is doing the labeling and so should the community since the insult was brought to the community's attention by the hiding labeler/harasser.

This is a long thread and I may have missed it in a later response, but what about people finding you in person through the internet? I play WoW and my guild leader was stalked by someone who knew only her first name, state, and profession. He called her and flew to her area to find her. This is just a simple case of a nut job, but the internet is full of them. When you bring other countries, with less freedom into the mix things just get messier.
- Heather
The thing is, he never defined his terms either. Is creating a bogus account and logging in through a proxy for a one-time flame the same as using a long-term pseudonym for mostly constructive purposes? I think not. There are so many good and valid reasons for not living completely transparently.

@Anthony it's your opinion that you found the Imus thing BS and I'm not talking about when people's feelings get hurt, I disagree in cases where someone can get physically hurt, here is an example.

WOW. I was trying to figure out why I had this pop up from a year ago. I still pretty much side with The Scoblezier with a few exceptions. If you are blogging, chatting, or even surfing on-line....odds are pretty good that a determined individual or govt entity can find you out. You may think that you are "anon" but in reality you are not at all. Plus, I have a lot less respect for folks esp in this country that are unwillling to put their real names in their posts.

I didn't feel like cutting and pasting so sorry. But if you think that your on-life persona is somehow sacred and secure from your real life identity then you have some harsh realities to wake up to. This is the information age people.
