Haha Sorry, I didn't read all of the thread.

I don't like it, but I won't remember what it used to be like, in a week. I feel a bit like I'm living on Airstrip One.

Like it

What annoys me is the way it no longer lists things chronologically. I scrolled through the page and had things from 3-hours ago above something 10-minutes ago

. Any way of re-ordering it?

Doesn't really bother me much, got used it already. Plus, its easier to stalk people now as most things people do is updated in real time now.

I mean

Meh, I'm used to it now.

Does everyone have the ticker on the right hand side? I've read about it but it's missing from mine

Got the ticker on the right hand side, and my top stories seem to have disappeared since last night, just got chronological order now, have FB listened to its users?

Well, it is.

From a usage point of view it costs the end user nothing. If they chose to pay either by surrendering personal info, buying via advertisement or otherwise then that was a choice.

Facebook is nothing more than an advertising tool that WE pay for but provides a very useful service for us.
Facebook is only what it is because of it's userbase buying goods therefore we should demand what it looks like if they want to make more money out of us.

I wouldn't get too hopeful. The most likely thing they'd do is revert to the old system while they make "improvements" to the new one, then after a couple of days go back to the new one again which will be no different at all.

I changed my language to leet. Seems to have reverted back to normal view and I can act like a 12 year old wannabe geek loling at leet speak.

I don't "like" the new Facebook layout, I'll continue to use it for a while but I've been using it less and less to be honest, I don't like the way it functions (selling our information off)

I've started using twitter (mainly to follow people and read news updates)

Hxc · 22 Sep 2011 at 13:05

Each and every change I've been in favour of. This however, is crap. Why does that stupid feed take up half my chat sidebar? Why can't that be in my news feed? Why do I have to 'subscribe' to people. balls.

Ascendancy · 22 Sep 2011 at 14:24

Didn't read the entire thread, but the new stuff is easily worked around.

Ticker can be removed via Adblock.

As for the news feed, if you create a new 'list' on the left hand side of the screen and add all your friends to it, it'll display all their updates in chronological order again.
