I'm not so sure about it. It doesn't look simpler or more complicated than before. The basic style is still the same. I actually like the previous layout more.

I don't like it. I especially hate how you're met with the News Feed after logging in; there's a reason I ALWAYS used the Live Feed---cause I NEVER liked the stupid 'News Feed'. Now I can't change it. My other issue with Facebook is that they like to change the stupid format every 6 months. I JUST got used to the last layout change and now they want to change it again?!? If they're trying to attract more users they could try NOT messing with the layout every 3 months or so.

Glad to know I'm not the only one who doesn't like the new layout. I don't like that I can't get the live feed anymore either.

Yeah, but the 'Recent News' isn't at all different from the 'News Feed'. Before the 'Live Feed' was definitely different from the 'News Feed'. Glad to know I'm not the only one who doesn't like it!

I got the facebooks new update before most of my friends did. I really dont mind it that much except for some facebook glitch right now that isnt showing maybe of the status updates until days later so its really a pain. Everyone is complaining on my facebook friends list about the new update but I dont think it really is that much different. I actually think most of the changes they did are pretty cool. It seems less cluttered to me and easier to see whose online among other things.

As with any changes being made anywhere, there will always be complaints from somebody. What does get frustrating is when you get used to something and then it changes, so you have to learn it all over again. I agree with you that it really hasn't changed much at all except that they moved things around kind of like customizing a profile page on Myspace.

It was 2 days after most of my friends, that i finally got it..! I actually vaguely like it. Its rather simple, and much neater then the old version, just slightly different, but essentially the same!

At first that i've opened the facebook ufter the update , i was thinking that i've entered some fishing website ... but than looking good on my session in the addres bar i seen that i'm on facebook but something was wrong ... but wait it's a new update of facebook ... Well seems that it seems that facebook runs smoother so i think that this update was not such a bad idea , so yes I like the new look of Facebook .

At first, it's quite confusing but in some ways it could be interesting. Well find out after few days if it really helps the users of reformatting their site. I still find it nice, more space for the chatters.

I do not really care for the new format. I suppose it wouldn't be bad once you get used to it and everything. I guess really my biggest issue with it right now is that I have a lot of trouble getting pages to load up now that it has changed. I guess once that kink is worked out it probably wouldn't seem so bad as it does right now.

Hate it, hate it, and hate it some more....!!!! I am here because I really don't like this setup they have. I also am so frustrated with the games freezing up continually. I really don't appreciate the fact that to get to applications you have to go back to facebook from one game to get to another. I primarily play cafe world now and I have to reboot my computer sometimes every 5 minutes just to play. I have stopped playing farmville and yoville for now as even just facebook home page will freeze my computer now. I am considering dropping it altogether and just spending my time here and at pogo games. At least for me it's much more relaxing and time worthy. I saw the new page days ago when my mother asked me to harvest her farmville crops for her.... then the other day my page changed and all hell has broken loose...in my mind anyway. Good luck to us all. I sure hope the new changes coming here won't be so frustrating....lol

I don't like the new format. I don't like that you can't get the "live feed" anymore. "Most recent" looks just like the news feed. I can't see the new status' I post unless I go to my profile and I don't like posting from my profile. I also liked having bookmarked apps at the bottom of the screen. Now they are on the side. It drives me crazy everytime I do on Facebook now.

I absolutely hate it. I really miss having my bookmarks at the bottom of the page. The other thing that I really don't like about it is that I haven't been able to figure out a way to just see my friends status updates and not all of that silly information about the games that they've been playing. I like to see what my friends are up to and I like to look at their new pictures, but I could care less about the games that they are playing.

I just saw the change about 1/2 an hour ago. One of my friends had tagged me in a note, so I went there to answer. Not sure that I like the new layout. It did seem to load a little bit quicker though. Always a plus here, because I still have ancient dial-up. LOL!

well. I think is ok, but not that be used to. I prefer the old format. But, i think face book is trying to improve. Luckily, the new games is becoming more and more and i enjoy the game. The format, i think i still need time to get use to it.

I usually do not like when website change their layout/format. When I saw the new facebook format earlier today, I was like "What in the world is this!?" I'm not sure if I like it yet, it'll certainly take some getting used to- one thing I think I like is the friend request/message icons in the upper corner. When I first joined facebook, I had no idea where the friend request thing was. w

for me, was the same, when i signed in, and saw this, i didnt have any idea of these,, i prefer the previous layout..

I actually prefer the older format too. This new one doesn't really prove to be that much of a fantastic change, though I see some things are more organized like notifications and messages are on the left portion and easily with the pull down menu or something. But gaming wise, I still see some kinks, but that one depends on the game's developer instead of Facebook. I don't see that much changes, and I kind of prefer the old layout. It takes some minutes for me to study this new layout and am not really used to it yet.

to be honest, i really do not like the new set-up. I still like the previous features which is easier than the current set-up. The only important about making new format is to make sure that the changes made are user friendly for the good of all mylot users.

We listen that change is for good n the only permanent thing. New n changed facebook is better than its previous version since it is more easier to use, many of my friend were not comfortable using facebook except 4 playing games now they start doing more on facebook... this change is really good.. i appreciate :)

Oh wow, the new facebook is HORRIBLE!!!! It is al lot more complicated to use and I really see no improvement. As the old saying goes...if it ain't broken, don't fix it!
