Facebook Gets A New “Facial” By Changing The News Feed Page

It has been the argument of just about every Facebook user's news feed all day. Facebook has now changed their interface to focus on "top stories". Facebook users who don't regularly visit the site will only see these top stories, which are based on your relationship to the person who posted, the type of story posted and the number of comments and likes received. Frequent visitors will see an option to expand recent posts at the top of the page. Top stories are marked with a little blue triangle in the top-left corner of each post.

I, for one, was pleased with the previous "News Feed" page. I know the majority of my friends on Facebook are aggravated by all the new changes and from what I've been hearing all day, so are everyone else. This is a picture of the new status bar on the top right corner of the screen (names have been censored to protect the innocent, hahaha!).

If you are a Facebook addict like I am, you know that Facebook has been hinting these new changes for the last month or so. I remember seeing that status bar a couple weeks ago on my chat bar. Remember when Myspace was changing everything? Well, we all know what happened there. You know the old saying, "If it ain't broke, don't fix it"? Man, is that ever appropriate for this situation.
