Facebook Layout - (Is there a new one coming out?) by M73A on 12-23-2009 at 05:44 PM

I have this layout:  (which I guess is the standard new layout)

And my friend is confused because theirs looks like this: (and if you click requests or something, it will change and look like mine. but will then keep changing back to this view everynow and again) wtf is that all about!

edit: also it doesnt match anything under the 'interface evolution' on the facebook wiki...

My girlfriend has had the new layout for around a month now... (I still have the old one; It must be certain accounts rather than locations)

I think it's just a "beta" at the moment...

its a bloody annoying beta! not because of the design but because it keeps changing from the beta to the current version every other link that you click!

Yeah she has that problem when going onto applications or profile pages... It only seems to really be the home page.

Looks like an improvement (Y)

I've got the new layout, and I don't mind it at all. When I first saw it I spent a few seconds refreshing the page because I thought the page had loaded incorrectly or something :chrongue:

Everyone has only just got used to the old "new" layout, hmmm. They change it to much at the moment..


RE: Facebook Layout - (Is there a new one coming out?) by M73A on 12-24-2009 at 01:47 PM

im always a fan of a new layout, but when you only implement it on one page its irritating as hell!!!

i think beta.facebook.com still works?

I agree, the frequency of their upgrades is rather confusing. We all get used to the new layout and then a new one comes along. But if it means progress towards a 'perfect' interface, then I guess we can't complain.

I don't see why not, in terms of a social communication/networking tool, there has to be some limit they will reach where they find the perfect balance of the information stream.
