New Facebook

What's this?  Double update?  Well, I did neglect this thing for a long time.  I figured I should try to get a second one up to make it happy.  Haha, see what I did there?  No?  Well screw you, jerk.  I'm here to talk about something a bit controversial today: the new version of Facebook.

Let me get this out of the way.  Everyone who hates the new Facebook is a fucking troglodyte who should have their internet priveleges revoked.

The biggest complaint I've heard is that people can't find the things they're looking for, and my counter to this is, take 30 seconds out of your day and maybe look around the screen a little bit.  Most things have simply been rearranged.  Now, I know this might be a little tough to deal with, because lord knows people have a hard enough time with Publix moving something from one aisle to another, but God forbid the programmers move a link on their favorite social networking site.  And, also, no one ever sends me a petition against Publix when they decide to rearrange the layout of their store.

The profiles are where we saw the biggest changes, with the addition of the tabs.  While this may seem dumb at first, it's actually quite ingeniuous because now you don't have to go srolling all over the damn place trying to find someones contact info, favorite's lists, Bumper Stickers, etc.  Also, the combination of the wall and the news feed is ingenious.  I love it.  I think it's the smartest thing Facebook has done since adding the ability to comment on peoples' status.

Wait, I take it back.  The smartest thing Facebook has done, and the definitive argument in favor of the new Facebook is the Pirate setting for the language.  Just scroll to the bottom of any page, and in the left hand corner next to the copyright is the language setting, just change it to English(Pirate) and you'll see what I mean.

New Facebook gets 7 Beards for being a big step forward, and for not kowtowing to the pressures of the ignroant masses.  Of course it lost points for still being Facebook and still causing me to waste endless hours of my life and because the goddamn picture uploading app still sucks.
