I don't hate it, but I don't think the New Facebook should be the only option available.

It sucks ! It's clattered and confusing ! You have to keep pressing tabs to see someone's profile, the Home page is a mess and it took me ages to move the boxes, in the order I want them, on the Boxes page !!! I guess, by time, I will get used to it, but they could keep the option of the "old" one, not shove the new one down our throats ! Also doesn't it look emptier on the left side ? There's a big white space on every page, which is probably gonna be filled with ads later on !

I don't get why they had to change it. What about the new version is better than the old one?

I haven't really noticed anything other than the tabs thing...somewhat annnoying, but whatever.

Not a fan, but oh well.

When the mini-feed and statuses were first introduced, everyone hated them. Now they don't.

Yeah, I got invites to probably 5 anti-new Facebook groups. I joined groups against Facebook opening up to non-students and when the news feed came out, but TPTB didn't listen then either so I've decided it's not worth the effort protesting.

P.S. Flair is on the Boxes tab.

There's a place to change the settings on what news feeds you get.

I hate the new Scrabble. Everytime they update it, it deletes the last player's word and skips their turn.

i hate it. I really hate that you can't view an entire profile at one time, I hate having to click through tabs.

There is a very nice workaround.

First, install this: https://addons.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/addon/748

Then, install this: http://userscripts.org/scripts/show/33638

So far, so good. Mine has not switched over perminantly yet. Sorry for those of you who have it. Watch this, I say this now, but when I log on later, it will be changed.

I don't mind it. To be honest, it made me realize how much I hated half of the applications I had, so sans them I actually find it much more visually appealing. It does bug me that they moved the home button and added the name profile link, but only because... it doesn't seem to make any sense or difference, so why bother?

I do think it's odd to give people the option of using old or new for a while and then drop the old one, but c'est la vie.

I despise it. It's too busy, and not easy to navigate.

Why did they feel the need to change it?

Some people have these inane applications on their page, and not just one..all of them. With the new layout, it's separated into one tab, which I don't have to open at all.

I prefer it the old way - I liked the original Facebook right off the bat, but this isn't so bad. It's gonna take some time to adjust.

Apparently, a bunch of people still has the original layout.

I got stuck in the "New" Facebook, and have found a link from friends to keep the "Old" Facebook.

It loses its charm via the new format...change is good, but not this kind....it almost becomes a totally different site.

I'm fine with it. I changed to new Facebook days ago and I'm used to it.

I'm getting used to it but it's not as aesthetically clean as the old Facebook was.

If you copy and paste that, it takes you to the old facebook.

btw, copy and paste the whole thing, not just the underlined part.

That won't work either, because of the space in the URL.

*sigh*

sad the "new" facebook is now the only facebook.

i am not the kind of person that is hesitant about change. i love change! i love new and improved. but this new facebook sucks ass! its so confusing and not user friendly at all. i hate it.

I for one love not having to look at everyones applications. I like the new layout. Facebook changed it with lots of user input so blame your tech savvy Facebook friends who gave Facebook feedback that this format was better.

I agree the only good thing about the new one is not seeing everyone's 500 applications on one page.
