Facebook Gets a Facelift
Posted By Adonis on July 21st, 2008

The new Facebook facelift is allegedly ready for release to the public. Developers of Facebook applications have been told to get their applications ready for the integration of the new look asap.
“We know you’ve been working hard getting your applications ready for integration with the new profile. Thank you for working alongside us. We’re close to the starting line – when users can start opting in to see the new site. We recommend you have your applications ready by Sunday evening so that users’ first experience with your applications on the new profile will be a great one.”
The new look aims to make your Facebook page more user friendly and less cluttered with tabs, drop down menus etc:
- New Menu Bar
- Mini-Feed and Wall are now under the wall tab
- A new “Bio” box
- Complete rearrangement of tabs for your wall, info, photos, and apps
- Facebook Apps are now found in the “Boxes” tab
- Users can add extra tabs
- Use your webcam to take a photo or record a video to add to your collection or post on the Wall of your friends
There doesn’t seem to be any official word on when exactly it’s going to be released, but you can head on over to http://www.new.facebook.com to check it out for yourself.
EDIT: It is now live!
