Facebook will be opening the new profile design to “selected users” within the next few hours, so developers should have their apps ready.

In many ways, the coming weeks will mark the beginning of a new chapter of life for developers on the Facebook Platform. Many things that were will be no longer, and many new things will grow.

Will the Facebook redesign bring a changing of the guard on the top developer charts, as many have speculated, or will the changes affect everyone pretty evenly? It’s sure to be an interesting next few weeks…

    I have been watching the development from the beginning on the fan page. I am very excited to see all the functionality, the developer test was limited.

    ’select users’ - if i a betting pundit is code for what i would say Harvard and Ivy League like they did with FB Chat.

    so i might get it on July 29th, a day or so before a end of month switch on for all [non opters!]

    however i believe they should do a inbox search on us. Inbox search was up within hours to all (my UK Regional Network [near the bottom of the FB Chat list] had it a few hours after it were announced not weeks ;)
