Well it looks like the ever-changing Facebook, is changing again... woo-hoo! (insert sarcasm here.) It seems like Facebook is not even Facebook anymore, I remember back in 2005 as a freshman in college when I first signed up for the site. It was for college students EXCLUSIVELY, and it was much more private, not everything you did on the site showed up in a "mini news feed" for all to read. Now the Facebook team is looking to change the site again, by including an extended wall where you can add pictures and organize your news feed. Personally I think Facebook needs to calm down a little, and maybe make improvements to help the site, not to exploit your personal life even further!
Original Story:AP-Facebook Facelift
Facebook gets a facelift to help users share
NEW YORK (AP) - Your Facebook page starts getting a new look
today.
The focus of the redesign is on an expanded Wall, where a
member's friends leave comments and photos. Users will be able to
add items to it more easily, and it'll incorporate reports on a
user's activities previously found on a user's "Mini-Feed."
The site plans to let users start testing the change this week,
though a complete switch won't occur for at least another week or
two.
Information will be organized in tabs, in an effort to reduce
clutter. And because privacy is such a concern, users will be able
to add as well as delete information from their news feeds.
No information about a user that wasn't previously public will
suddenly become posted to the Wall either.
Both Facebook and rival Myspace are reorganizing their layouts
this summer to reduce clutter and make information easier to find.
