So the consensus on the new Facebook seems to be somewhat mixed and by somewhat mixed. I mean, "Everybody hates it." After a few minutes of looking here's my initial observations.
1. The new "News Feed" is the previous "Live Feed." If you're a voyeur like me you've been clicking on that tab for the past couple months to see what all of your friends are doing in real time.
2. Underneath the "News Feed" on the left it will show your friends in groups if you've put them in groups. That way the feed is not so overwhelming for those of you who have 500,000 friends.
-You put friends in groups by selecting the "Friends" tab at very top in the blue bar.
-Then select "Make a New List" and name that list.
-You also have the opportunity within "Settings" to allow different permissions
to each of your lists.
-Remember, you have the freedom to put a friend on more than one list.
(Handy, I know. Thanks, Jen Walsh)
3. The "Highlights" on the left, are things that more than one of your friends is doing with ads mixed in. Which is very clever advertising and very smart for Facebook. Let's face it, Facebook has to be able to make money on the free service they are offering us and they just haven't been.
This is just a few things to help weed through the new changes and there will probably be more to come as I play around.
