Facebook

Wow. Facebook just made some adjustments to their layout and people are “tweeting” about it like crazy! Who would’ve thought? Well, Mark Zuckerberg, for one. Facebook really seems to know what they are doing. But, did this really help their site? Sure, Facebook is doing great right now and they have quite the member database, but I’m watching for updates and it’s not as appealing as Twitter. So, I’ve been going back and forth with various different professional friends that enjoy the Interactive World as much as I do, and they too agree that the jury is still out on the new Facebook page. I really hope it helps the site out, but if not, I hope they learn that it’s better to invent new things rather than copying off of someone else.

This is my opinion on the new Facebook page so far, and please remember that it’s JUST an opinion. I like the look of it but I see where they are going but I think they’ve missed the mark. The updates look Twitter-like…but they aren’t. If you want to see the updates, you have to refresh your screen. Where Twitter will scroll down, with Facebook you need to refresh. I have faith that Facebook will indeed work this out, but in the meantime, I will continue to Tweet. Also wondering, is there a way to see what everyone is saying on Facebook like you are on Twitter?

Stay tuned for new developments with Facebook. You have to love the interactive world. It keeps you on your toes!
