Looks like it’ll be a confusing time for notification-reliant apps then. However also it looks like the changes will reward better engaging apps more.
Good.

Well, this looks good for the game apps I’m planning. But what of my apps that currently just extend a part of the Facebook user’s profile?
Looks like I’m a duck in the water =\

If you all keep changing it all the time, people are going to start getting pissed fast. You all should let people get used to something that works and leave it.

Thank you for this article.
I have a question to the facebook sites:
Does this mean that new posts on a site land in the Inbox and not in the livestream?

These changes are really cool specially the fifth one. I really like it.

Looks like an improvement to me, especially insights update. Once again, with all the changes, I look forward to being spammed by wanting to ‘change facebook back!’ hehe :)
