New facebook?

Facebook is one of the most important things in my life, alongside my family, my friends, and the daily consumption of cheese and highly caffeinated energy drinks, so an alteration to facebook is an alteration of my life, and I don't generally like change.

I remember when Facebook last had a revamp; there was uproar. You'd have been forgiven for thinking that by altering the layout of the social networking phenomenon, Mark Zuckerberg had simultaneously ripped a hole in space and allowed large groups of ravenous, angry, large headed aliens with a lust for blood, destruction and running around clubbing us poor humans over the heads with the limbs of our loved ones. Seriously, people were NOT happy. There were groups set up announcing "1,000,000 against the new Facebook", it was in the NEWSPAPERS for gods sake; then about two weeks after the change everyone forgot what the old FB looked like and realised that the new layout was spiffing and allowed for even more procrastination activities, whilst also making a good spot of FB stalking easier than ever before. Gee whiz!

So what can we expect from new Facebook? It went live about 30mins ago and so far I can't see much difference to be honest, apart from that the layout is more reminiscent of Twitter [yes, I'm now highly knowledgeable about Twitter having joined up 4 hours ago], and the wall now mainly consists of wall posts with little bits about events/groups you join, which is fine by me as I normally delete that stuff anyway for fear of people finding out where I'm going and going there too- I'm not a fan of people in general, and as I don't know about 50% of my FB friends I'm not taking any chances. I've already seen a few status changes declaring they HATE NEW FB ZOMG :( [or something along those lines], but time will tell if this will lead to more uproar or if people will just suck it up. I'm just glad there is more emphasis on the status bar, which is now the publisher, as it allows me even more opportunities for rambling. BONUS.
