Facebook Voice Technology Soon!
Yes, Facebook's product manager Tom Stocky confirmed on Monday on his post that World's Number One Social Media Site, Facebook, will acquire Mobile Technologies, a company which is behind speech recognition and machine translation technologies.
"It has always been our mission to make the world more open and connected. Although more than a billion people around the world already use Facebook every month, we are always looking for ways to help connect the rest of the world as well. Voice technology has become an increasingly important way for people to navigate mobile devices and the web, and this technology will help us evolve our products to match that evolution. We believe this acquisition is an investment in our long-term product roadmap as we continue towards our company's mission.", Tom added.
So we believe, this voice technology will soon be rolled-out and incorporated to Facebook Apps in Mobile phones soon.

Facebook Timeline, How to Enable and View It?
After some changes on their Facebook Home page like the following list, Facebook announced earlier today on the so called Facebook Timeline
1. Privacy Settings in sharing post
2. Notifications of friends shown in upper right corner
3. Thumbnail or picture size (larger now) of friends' shared
As early as now, Open Graph Developers can enable thier Facebook Timeline - even the non-Opren Graph developers can also do it by following below steps:
1. Login to Facebook
2. Enable developer mode.Type “developer” into the Facebook search box located in the upper left, click the first result (it should be an app made by Facebook with a few hundred thousand users), and add the app.
3. Proceed to the Developer App
4. Create a new app. Give your new app ANY display name and namespace. Read through and agree to the Platform Privacy agreement.
5. Look for the “Open Graph” header, and click the “Get Started using open graph” link. Create a test action for your app, like “read” a “book”, or “eat” a “sandwich” then click Get Started
6. Go to your Facebook homescreen. An invite to try Timeline should be waiting at the top of the page
7. Click "Get it now" to start your Facebook Timeline.
You can view your timeline in this path, http://www.facebook.com/YOURUSERNAMEHERE?sk=timeline
Take note, if you have facebook friends or open graph developers who run their Profile in this Timeline version, they can actually see your new Facebook Timeline. If they are just ordinary users, then they will see your old profile.
Should you have further concern and need assistance, post a comment below and will answer your inquiry.

SMART offers Free Facebook Access, an upgrade on Sun's Facebook 0?
I was not able to get the official announcement of Smart's Free Facebook Application in all Java-enabled mobile phones, but thanks to CBT for his post on "Update on SMART Free Facebook Access through Mobile App for Java" - I get updated!

Anyways, this free Facebook Access of Smart is allegedly an update or upgrade of Sun Celullar's 0.facebook.com. This was believed after PLDT acquired Sun's telecommunication company, Digitel. But anyway around, as long as the consumers benefit its major changes, this application is a go-go for everyone. For the record, this Facebook App is not just for all SMART users out there, it just happened that Smart earlier announced its support to this free Facebook service. There would be no surprise if Globe Telecommunications will release its confirmation for the support of the same service.
SMART Users, Eyes Here!
See details below from CTB, a message sent exclusively to CTB author:
Download and use of all Facebook services within the Facebook Mobile App for Java are FREE for Smart subscribers from Jul 15 to Oct 14, 2011.
However, please take note that clicking on any URL or 3rd party services (e.g. Snapstore) will lead you out of the application. Thus, usual data charges apply. You should have at least P1.00 maintaining balance to use the app. The app may be downloaded by sending FB to 211. Subscribers will receive text confirmation containing the download link of the app.
Also, they may click on the Facebook Mobile Application link in the Smart WAP site. Hope this helps.

Eventually, I was not able to maximize the use of the said to be free 5 days internet access to this Nokia X2 bundle with limited Smart sim. I got disconnected after the 2nd day of usage and lost my load after then. But still, thank you to Smart for this new Free Facebook Access.
Better than 0.facebook.com? Yes, a very big yes! In this new Facebook Free Access, you can actually browse and see all Photos you have and your friends are having in their respective profiles. And its free from Charges! Update your status in realtime!
In respect to GUI (Graphical User's Interface), this Facebook Application is a younger version for Facebook Application for Android Phones. You can actually send and upload photos without getting any charge. Photos are uploaded to your album entitled Snaptu Uploads.
Its Home screen is composed of 11 icons; News Feed, Inbox, Requests, Notifications, Events, Photos, friends, Profile, Find Friends, Search and Apps. I bet everybody knows their functions. Furthermore, easy browsing is guaranteed.
At least, I now have an alternative way of accessing facebook in case there is no wi-fi access points for my Samsung Galaxy Mini. Kudos to Smart! How is Globe doing so far?
