Facebook Places is a new feature that has been released for use in the United States and soon to be worldwide. This feature is a new Facebook application that can allow your friends to stay in touch with your real time location if you desire. It does require a mobile device to access. However, it doesn’t require much else than you are probably already using if you access Facebook from your mobile already. Places works with devices such as iPhone, Android and other media devices.
To use this Facebook Places on your media device, such as the Android or Iphone, you have these options.
For iPhone use the latest edition of the Facebook application downloaded available from itunes: itunes.apple
Or use the direct link with iPhone, Android or other mobile devices:
touch.facebook with a compatible operating system/browser. This would be one capable of supporting geolocation and HTML 5. It’s pretty simple to use.
