Facebook Rolls Out Redesigned Profile Pages
alphadogg writes "The [Facebook Profile] changes include a clustered listing of biographical information under the user name at the top of the page, including such details as the person's job, hometown, relationship status, where they went to college, what languages they speak and birthdate. Beneath that will appear a set of the five most recent photos that a user allows to be posted at their profile page." The changes unsurprisingly are being met with mixed opinions ranging from rage to anger.
More predictable semantic information which can be used in to collect more information about the users. Hooray!
The link in the summary is broken, and points directly to Facebook's "Incompatible Browser" page.
At what point do we realize that people wasting time on such sites is as big a danger as say, drugs?
When's the war on facebook ?
Obviously you do not watch infotainment TV shows. As farmville has eaten into their viewership, they've been running some might FUD-dy stories along the line of marital infidelity / online predators / Save the Children / general theme of you should all be scared and watch this TV show instead of looking at facebook. According to TV, crooks / creeps / freaks didn't exist until Facebook and if we stop using Facebook they'll magically disappear.
Prime Time TV has also been out to get them with the usual FUD.

Same here.
It's a bit like Windows 7. You know the thing you want is there, but you don't know where they've hidden it with the latest redesign. So you just type the name of what you want into the search bar, and it magically appears.
which is totally what she said
