Does anyone think the changes to facebook, mostly in user interface and style, are more annoying than useful. It is starting to look more like MySpace or Friendster than the sleek, mature look facebook is known for. Why do you think they made these seemingly unnecessary changes? I always like to think that if something isn't broken you shouldn't fix it. What are your opinions on the recent changes by facebook?

I don't like the newest changes to facebook either. I agree with you about it looking more like myspace. I quit using myspace because i thought it was too crowded and not entertaining. I think facebook is easier to use and has more gaming than myspace. I hope they don't change it so much that they lose people.

I agree. At least it isn't as bad as the new Black Eyed Peas MySpace look. That just looks plain ghetto with the underscore replacing the word Space. It seems like social networking sites have no sense of web design.

Not only does the main sight seem crouded as far as I can see but I cant use it. It does not cooperate wiht my screen reading software. I've written directly to the devs but they brush all of us off like we are no bodies.

I hate all the changes that they keep doing on face book.No sooner do we get use to the latest changes that they have done, they change it all over again.I have not been on the other social sites that i am a member of yet to see if they have changed their sites, but i hope they do not change facebook again.

it seems to me that they change it every 1 or 2 months. I don't know if they are compeeting with antoehr network or what but it drives me nuts!

What bugs me is the face book mobile site. I am blind and use software to read the screen to me. I don't like the new look as my tools are having a hard time with it. I wish they would make things simpler not harder to use!

Well, i really hate the changes made by facebook on our prfile. It looks pathetic. The older look was much better than the present. And you are right that we should not fix the things if its not broken. Have a nicd day. Happy mylotting. Regards, harry.

I'm glad someone else is on the same 'page' as me! (Get it?!) I don't like the changes either which is why I haven't chosen the option of moving my page to the new layout yet, even though most of my friends on there have. I liked the clean and clear appearance it had before where information was where you expected it and made it a huge step above Myspace etc. It seems that some people can't help but fiddle with things even when they're not broken!

There will be a time though when that old layout will disappear. I think I was changed without my permission and knowledge. Growl!

A little confuse when I allow and saw the new style but there is no big deal about that. May be that action would be testing on the part of facebook admin if more annoying definitely they have another option to make better... see and wait until next.... see you around
