Some of us often do have the mobile phones of Mesozoic era, rofl ;) such as Nokia 1100 which has no internet browser or some times, even though you have a smart phone or android mobile, but you are in a remote location, where you have no internet access possible, you can still access facebook.

Know How...!!!
Yes this is possible now with the help of Fonetwish. Facebook India has partnered with Fonetwish to bring Facebook on every mobile phone without requiring any apps or even the Internet.
Here's how to access it:
1. Dial *325# (or *fbk#) from your mobile.
3. Now, it asks for your username, example: Sriram Krishna (your name as in facebook ).
4. After processing for validity of username, a window appears and prompts you to enter your password, ensuring secure access.
5. It provides a menu on Welcome page as: 1. News Feed 2. Update status 3. Post on wall 4. Friend request 5. Messages 6. Notifications 7. Account Setting
6. If you select messages, i.e. you enter option 5 and click send, then you get a sub-menu for it as : Welcome to messages: 1. Online friends 2. Read message..blah blah blah...!!!
Fonetwish service is available almost for all service providers in India.
P.S: Please note that you need to subscribe to the service to use it. It is free only for 15 days , and later the charges would be only 1.00/- per day for unlimited usage.
You can also activate Fonetwish directly from your Facebook account at https://apps.facebook.com/fonetwish/
Something about technology:
The protocol being used is USSD. Unstructured Supplementary Data (USSD) is used by telecom players to send alerts to their users that inform them about their balance at the end of call or for sending missed call alerts. This protocol helps GSM cellular telephones to communicate with the service provider's computers and USSD messages create a real-time connection during a USSD session. The connection remains open,
allowing a two-way exchange of a sequence of data. This makes USSD more responsive than services that use SMS.
That's it..Go on browsing fb freaks...!!
