I have a feeling Facebook (like other companies) probably focus more on their mobile app rather than making sure their web site works 100% for desktop users, unfortunately. I've noticed even their web site these days seems more optimized for mobile use. If I make my web browser window bigger on the screen, I think it looks a little weird - The news feed takes up a fixed-width center column, with some links on the left and contacts on the right. If you have a big monitor and maximize the browser window, there's a lot of empty space on the page.ããNightfoxãã---ã þ Synchronet þ Digital Distortion: digitaldistortionbbs.comã

A lot of not-so-modern web applicationsãwill give you trouble with old browsers and operating systems.ããNot to mention it is reckless to use an old unsuported OS in an Internet facingãmachine.ããGiven the upgrade cost is zero, you could make yourself a gift and useãsomething more recent.ãã--ãgopher://gopher.richardfalken.com/1/richardfalkenãã---ã þ Synchronet þ Palantir BBS * palantirbbs.ddns.net * Pensacola, FLã
