Facebook Layout Changes Once Again

Updated timeline rolls out 'this week'

New Facebook layout

So this is what the new and supposedly improved Facebook will look like. The update mandatory to all users, rolls out this week. Some already have it, while others will be waiting a while longer.

The timeline features a more streamlined look, with pictures taking on a more focused design. A bit like the mobile version. You'll notice the 'home' button and your name have been moved from the left to the right side of the page, and an a feature for quick access to your privacy settings, has now been added. You will also notice the icons for particular actions has also changed. With updated icons for, 'comments, likes and poking'.

Another added feature is the ability to see what timeline you are currently viewing. I.e Most Recent Stories or Top Stories.

That's not all! Facebook pages will also have a major face lift. All your posts will  now streamline down the right hand side of the page, leaving the left side to be filled with information about you or your business. Your opening times, contact details and more. Also on the left will be the option to invite more people to your page

A feature showing your likes 'this week' and other stats will show on the top right. Facebook has also added new navigational buttons to the top of the page. Showing Page, Activity, Insights and Settings. They are also launching a new feature called 'Pages to watch'. 

This is in the insights tab and lets users track similar pages to their own. 

Tracking performance and stats and the pasts weeks most engaging posts.

So there you have it, an almost complete redesign. Did you know it was a year today that Facebook introduced us to the current timeline? Do you have it yet? What do you think of the change?

One thing is for curtain, even if you don't yet have the new layout, it is coming!
