That's very interesting. "m.facebook.com" is actually the mobile website
that one automatically gets redirected to when they access the site from a
mobile phone or ipod. But I don't see an option on their regular site to
switch to that layout as an option. So I would assume that most people who
have never visited facebook on a phone don't even know it exists.

Out of curiosity, how did you discover it Randy?
