I would much rather have the old facebook. And for those who “hate waiting for the applications to load,” maybe you should consider getting new friends. If anyone is juvenille enough to have applications like “Hot or Not” or “Which Disney princess are YOU!?” then maybe they don’t deserve your friendship. But seriously people, grow up. It’s not the first time in history where people have had to change even when they didn’t want to. I’m sure that I hate new facebook just as much as some of you, but just deal with it.

Personally, I prefer the old facebook, and I prefer the old facebook to myspace, new facebook is just very messy, especially in terms of navigation, it’s all over the place. Keeping it simple works for me, new myspace, oops, I mean facebook doesn’t work as well for me.

And yes, the option of ‘doing one’s own html’ as Audrey puts it, would indeed be better.

I agree with YourFriendJustice.. there are over 100 million people on Facebook and there is only a minor 1% who are complaining.

I have to say it took some getting used too but the new layout is actually more organized and is easier to load. Loading does require a good internet connection and a performing computer.. but when you have both and it still takes a minute to load a page.. there is something wrong.

So all of you who won’t stop complaining about this subject, take your profile and go on myspace who just copies what Facebook reinvented and spend countless hours doing your HTML. Stop saying you will do it and do it.

well honestly saying i did like the old facebook n do hate the new one, but the only thing i’d like to suggest to facebook developers is dat when they have introduced this new design they should also have included some colors or choice of themes coz it really looks boring at times or they should just let the users have a choice.

The new design is messier than the old one! I don’t want my mini-feed and my wall mixed together; I dont want different sizes of fonts on my wall! I want to have control on what people see when they get to my profile (i.e. my horoscope or watever), they aren’t gonna go through tabs n shit! The new design is merely a way for FB to make more money because it’s certainly a maze where u have to click million times to get to what u want! Ofcourse, million clicks = million Ads = millions and millions of dollars. So if we boycott FB for a week, they would know that USERS come first.

I’ve gotten frustrated several times trying to find things on the new Facebook and have reverted to the old a few times. But I also know that most people (me included) hate to adjust to new things, but once they become familiar, the new way magically seems so much less stupid and it’s the old way that loses it charm.

Ultimately, though I’ll miss having some applications on my “main” page, it will be nice not to have to wade through all the Pirates, Vampires, Bumper Stickers, Flowers, etc. each time I want to write on somebody’s wall (now be honest – that annoyed most of you, too). Yes, I did move my own wall to the top of my page on old Facebook, but the vast majority of my several hundred friends were not so inclined/considerate/clued-in, and the plethora of applications was getting absurd!! In time, I think New Facebook will be a blessing. It’s just adjusting to it that’s a pain.

I personally despize the new layout… i’ve given it a few weeks to see if I’d get use to it… HELL NO! I kept reverting back to the old one. It’s much simplier, easier, less complicated…and right there to see. The new layout is so not user friendly as they claim it to be. They really need to make it look like the old version at least or give everyone a choice to click on one or the other. Forcing everyone to use one layout without a choice is disgusting and selfish. Everyone is different, we don’t all like the same thing and so that is where the option of letting people have the ability to CHOSE be an option. Maybe it’s the age and maturity of the creator of facebook that is shining thru. Any smart and normal adult with maturity would know to make sure there are options for people and to keep everyone happy.
