Facebook gets a Facelift!

Posted by Asela de Saram in Business, Facebook, Reviews

When I logged onto Facebook today to check my usual set of messages, posts & gossip; I noticed a very interesting link at the very top left. It said “The new Facebook is here Try it now”. Being the insanely curiously type, I clicked “Try it now” and found my online social life change instantly.

There have been several rumors of plans to give a face lift to Facebook but what I experienced leaves face lifts far behind and places FB on a whole new level. Facebook has not only set a new standard but exceeded all my expectations of what social networking site can become in such a short time span.

The wide layout and additional tabs have made the content area a lot more user-friendly and made my profile a whole lot easier to manage with less scrolling.

Several interesting facts:

* Can add new tabs to include any new areas that I might want within easy access
* Edit text/icons are available for any section of the profile
* Loads a lot faster than the previous version
* A lot less scrolling to get to the required sections (e.g. Funwall, Testimonials, etc) – now they are available under Boxes

All-in-all, I really like this new face of the future and looking forward to more.

    Hey! I actually prefer the older version. It seemed more orderly.

    The new one looks like a template for a designer.

    Think I’ll stick with the older version till they decide to get rid of it and transfer us all on to the new one. Lol
