Check In on Facebook Places with Opera Mobile 11

Facebook is one place to check this feature as the Foursquare. This feature is only in the Facebook app for blackberry, iphone, W7, and android. Can also use the touch version touch.facebook.com. But sometimes place does not want us to detect the position if using a mobile browser. If it fails, how to outsmart is through the Opera Mobile 11.

Do the following:
  • Please log in touch.facebook.com via Opera Mobile 11.
  • Click the Place / Place - Tell a friend where you are on. Or click Sign.

  • There will be a confirmation to use the Geolocation.

  • You can choose a place that is closest to your position, or enter a new place.

  • In status will look like this.

Tested using a Nokia E63. So not only based on location using gps bts. Would be more precise if there is a gps on your phone. But you should not check in at home for security and privacy.
Weaknesses can not be used to find a place that is readily available, searchnya no way. In addition when viewed in the menu Place / Place does not look what device you use. Usually there Blckberry ... through ... through the iphone. But if you use Opera Mobile will be seen through ... aka empty. May be confused to recognize the device's
