I hate the changes



Sorry, just thought I'd get that in there early in advance. I know the Facebook cycle is now more common than the Sonic cycle, but there's a risk they might yesterday and today it's broke and people won't grow to like some of the changes. There may be good features but they can't design UI for shit.

for those wondering about the changes:

Prepare Yourselves: Facebook To Be Profoundly Changed

I have seen what Facebook is launching on Thursday, and it’s going to change the world of social media. And while I won’t talk about the mind-boggling things Facebook will be launching, I will say this: The Facebook you know and (don’t) love will be forever transformed.

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.

I can't wait for the shit storm of lulz comments and rage about the UI change if it turns out to be massive. I use facebook but I don't really use it if you know what I mean. 99% of the friends on there are people from the past I don't talk to anymore so it's just there. I'd be more interested if facebook found a way for me to find escort services in NYC without police hounding everywhere then I'd care.

Yeah, that was just to get ready for these massive changes. Kind of like how Google changed the toolbar before Google+. It was the calm before the storm.

Those are pictures of the new Facebook or pictures of a power point presentation showcasing features? I don't want a black interface!

Im guessing it's just a presentation. It seems to be comparing Brand pages. (Yes, singers are brands).

The attendees info on the bottom also suggests it's not the actual UI change.

I thought people were going to add each other on and thought it would've been a terrible mistake because I just steal jokes and puns from here and post them on my FB statuses lol.
