All Facebook needs now is glitter text as default.

All Facebook needs now is glitter text as default.

And changeable profile backgrounds that play music automatically.

Ugh. The new layout is much better than the old one, I don't understand how could anyone not see this. This is not even that big of an update.

Its really overwhelming. The clusterfuck-yness was the reason I left myspace...

It doesn't look or behave anything like MySpace. The only problem I have so far with the new design is the live updates sidebar:
*I wish I could decided what lists or people I see there and change the settings in general.
*I don't think sharing the same sidebar with the char works. They should find another solution for the chat.

There are also some visual elements I think could work better, but they're pretty minor.

Other than that, it's pretty great.

 

[Pachimari]

I'm not even confused about anything in the new Facebook anymore.
I think it's phenomenal, thumbs up to them.

 

[shanshan310]

People freak out like this every time they make an update - no one will care in a week or two.

I've never been bothered by updates before, like I said.

He didn't mean 'you' but the core group of whiners that crop up with change.

i was driving my ferrari when i saw this guy speeding over the speed limit. when the lights turned red i pull up aside him, looked him straight on in the eye and said, "you shouldn't speed its dangerous". he laughed and drove through the red lights.

i sped up after him while he was speeding and took of my shades and said "you shouldn't drink and drive" and i threw my hot coffee on his face, and then he crashed into a garbage truck "back where you belong" i said.

I'm guessing Chinner's facebook is full of hoverhand pictures.

It is, but it's not his hand that's hovering. The ladies can look but they can't touch.

You're not one of those people that refers to themselves in third person, are you?

 

[DieNgamers]

Are there screenshots of that new facebook design? Mine is still mostly the same as ever.

 

[SturokBGD]

I like how the new Facebook news feed only marks my own status updates as posts they think I might be interested in.

 

[kaskade]

If they don't officially release/announce the iPad app I'm going to be very, very disappointed.

If you like stalking you like the new Facebook

I want the iPad app released with the Ticker/Chat as a feature on the right side of the screen.

Edit: F8 conference starts in 40 minutes.

Prepare for the new Facebook

But these changes are just the beginning. The changes Facebook will roll out on Thursday are designed to enhance the emotional connection its users have to each other through Facebook. These changes will make Facebook a place where nearly everything in your life is enhanced by your social graph. These changes will make it so you know your friends better than you ever thought you could.

On Thursday, developers will be elated, users will be shellshocked and the competition will look ancient. On Thursday, Facebook will be reborn. Prepare yourselves for the evolution of social networking.

Watch F8 LIVE at Facebook

Stuff

Sounds like they're moving for even less privacy. Yay.

 

[Vanillalite]

I'm semi okay with the layout. I just want my recent feed to be in time order. The fact that it's not in time order and just all over the place bugs the shit out of me.

 

[Treefrog]

Ooh, excited for the new profile page. I'm always interested in new user interfaces.

 

[Pie and Beans]

↓ SEE 3 NEW STORIES.

[Pachimari]

F8 is on now.

Ehhh, it's basically the same thing, really. Except you have to click something. Big deal.

Are there any live blogs? Video isn't smooth for me at work.

I think I read This Is My Next has a live blog.

Thanks, I'll see if the video maybe smooths out but here's the link for anyone else who wants it.

Wow

 

[Pachimari]

You can listen to each others music libraries and watch movies together now as well.

 

[Mr_Zombie]

The Timeline stuff looks nice. And it makes sense to put all the activity to the ticker and leave wall only for posts and news.

 

[Pachimari]

No iPad app. =(
I like the Timeline.
