FaceBook Gets a Facelift
Nothing too major, just a rearranging of elements. It’ll take a little while to get used to, but I’m liking the changes so far. Everything is organized in a more sensible manner, although I still feel it needs a little tweaking - the way the content overlaps the header is messing with my head.

The changes include:
- A navigation and profile simplification— This is a decent change. Everything is organized more logically, but it takes more clicks to get to certain areas that you were able to get to in once click. However, it is a necessity for future features.
- The introduction of “Inbox”— Messages and Shares are now combined. This is a great change as before it really made no sense in the way it was designed.
- Network Pages— This is probably the coolest thing of all the changes. Basically, it’s kind of a network social hub which shows people, events, etc. for an entire network on one page and gives a more cohesive feel. It has a lot of extraneous information which may prevent it from becoming a true ‘network hub,’ but it’s a good start and a nice snapshot of the networks that you’re part of. Click here to see yours.
