Facebook just converted everyone (or at least me, and I didn't sign up to go early) to their new layout. I like what they've done with the Profile tab (with the Wall); not so much the main page, especially since I'm not immediately seeing the bar that lets you enter your status.

I just figured that out too.

I detest Twitter. Does that mean I have to either get with it or get rid of my FB account? It's the only way I know what's going on anymore.

I was going to try not to complain, and give it some time to grown on me. But I have to admit, I'm having a time figuring out what information can be found where. As much as it was criticized initially, I came to really appreciate the news feed. Now, it seems like the main feed is much more focused on status updates (a la twitter as others have noted), so I sort of missed the other minutia that was included in the previous version of the feed.

As far as Twitter goes, I feel like the layout may be similar to the new FB, but the functionality feels much different as you're getting a live feed from all types of updates and not just 140-char status updates. Photos, Videos, Links, Comments all in one big stream.

Now I officially hate it. Apparently some chick I went to high school with that friended me, even though I don't know her at all, sent Easter Peeps to like 200 people...each one with a special announcement. Now my entire front page looks like this:
NAME WITHHELD TO PROTECT THE GUILTY placed a Marshmallow Peep on NAME WITHHELD TO PROTECT THE INNOCENT's profile..
Repeated over and over...it is literally all I see.

You can click on the right side of all that crap and "hide" her. It's still a pain in the ass, though.

Fastest growing demographic on Facebook. Women age 50-65
My wife put mine up so we could keep in touch with friends from school and our old town.
Within weeks I had old girlfriends stalking me.
I have friend requests from people I don't know and the realtor I befriended is contacting all my friends trying to drum up business.Posted 3 years ago # -

Why can't facebook just go back to being a place to post drunken party shenanigans; for your friends to post pictures of you with midget strippers in Mexico; for your parents to shockingly find out about something; for you to randomly stalk someone from class...

I'm not a fan of the new changes, either. In terms of how user-friendly it is, it's just like anything else, though.
There are typically 2 troubleshooting options that cover 90% of the problems:
1. reboot
2. keep looking at the thing! are you looking at the thing?In this case, I think we all agree that we don't like the way it looks, though.
