Facebook Finally Released Their New Home Page Design
Originally published on Tech Cores in 2010. Kept for posterity, so some details are likely out of date.
We've talked about them before and another time also. But this time, we're giving you news that you'll know exactly what we're talking about if you're a Facebook user; besides, most of everyone I've ever met has a Facebook account. Of course, you always have the type of people who don't want to be on the internet at all.
Today, when I logged into Facebook, I noticed that their design changed. I knew this was coming quite some time ago. I didn't want to say anything about it until it had taken place.
From what I know from the previous design switches, "why does Facebook keep on changing" is a question that everyone always asks. You might not know it now, but designs are always changing websites to make them more user-friendly and easy to use. Facebook for sure had quite a bit of design changes since its release.
When they change the design to a newer design in the future, you'll want this new design back. It's just how everything works out... you'll get used to the new layout.
Basically, Facebook now has three panels. And like on most websites, these three panels are the following: navigation, content, and extras like advertisements or recommendations. They also changed some text around and moved some links to different places.
It might be best for me to stop talking and just show you what it looks like!
If you would like to see more about the new design, you may check it out at the below link or log in to Facebook yourself to see in person:

I wonder what the guys over at Facebook are planning on next? How 'bout that dislike button?
