Facebook updates News Feed to accommodate weak connections

Facebook Inc updated its News Feed feature on Tuesday so that content loads quickly even with weak Internet connections. Many of Facebook's users are in emerging markets with weak 2G connections, such as India, Brazil and Mexico, where it is difficult to load pictures and videos that use more data. The update is part of an effort by Facebook to get more users in these countries as it has largely saturated the U.S. and western European markets.
