i think the point of the three default tabs (wall, info, photos) is to maintain consistency from one person’s page to the next – keeping Facebook the “directory” it essentially serves to be. i think its a great improvement in keeping our pages organized!

I don’t get it. Why even have the default 3 tabs that poorly categorize content? Or why limit additional tabs to a single application? Why not just allow a certain amount of user specified tabs with customizable labels, containing as little as as much content as you like? It works for My Yahoo!, iGoogle and other portal sites that have multiple “applications” on a page.
