Would Facebook cost anything on my phone?

[Haushinka]

I got a Samsung Character phone for Christmas, and it has Facebook and Twitter capabilities. We don't have a data plan, so I don't get internet. We're on US Cellular, and I get picture messaging, calls, and texting. That's it. Would Facebook cost something on my phone or not?

Yes bc it would cost data unless you're on WiFi

Because you don't have data, using Facebook would incur extra charges.

You need the internet in order to go on Facebook, so yes it would cost something.

Facebook ( http://www.facebook.com) is an online social networking directory that connects people with friends and others who work, study and live around them. People use Facebook to keep up with friends, upload an unlimited number of photos, share links and videos, and learn more about the people they meet.

Created and launched in February 2004 by Harvard students Mark Zuckerberg, Eduardo Saverin, Dustin Moskovitz and Chris Hughes, the site began as a network strictly for Harvard University. Two months later, the site expanded to include other Ivy League schools. After that, the college network slowly grew and by the end of 2004, Facebook had registered more than one million users.

Now open to anyone with a valid email address, the site includes members' pictures, biographies, interests and messages, and members can browse freely through open profiles. Members may choose their personal levels of security to prevent strangers from accessing their personal information.

The platform enables anyone, anywhere, to build complete applications that members can choose to use. Applications range from photo sharing to graffiti walls and everything in between.

there is another way you can use facebook on your phone. you can go log into your account activate facebook texts under account settings and then there will be a tab for mobile and you enter your number and the whole set up process is easy. and all it uses is your text messages and since you have unlimited texts facebook texts will be free.
