December 27th, 2009 admin
Last week, a source emailed us two screenshots of Facebook’s forthcoming redesign. While it is still a work in progress, it shows some simple yet major enhancements that reveal where world’s largest social network with over 350 million subscribers might be headed.

A sanctuary in cyberspace, but every love story ends. (Facebooooook.....) Why'd you have to go and lose your exclusivity? Now all my nightmares have come true... my mom just friended me! Since she joined she spends all her time checking my news feed. My interests are no longer bubble butts and sticky weed. She whacked my ass on Mafia Wars and Flixtered "You've Got Mail." She washed the colors with the whites and posted "laundry fail" ('cause now)... CHORUS My mom's on Facebook. She found a new way to nag me. My mom's on Facebook. Comments whenever friends tag me. My mom's on Facebook. She only got it to stalk me. My mom's on Facebook. My childhood photos cock-block me. My wall is not for e-mail, mom, you'll never get it right.

Facebook redesigned at the beginning of February, moving its search box from the right side to the top middle of its home page, and it seems to have paid off, with the company’s U.S. search queries growing 10 percent in February, according to new data released today by comScore .

It didn’t get as much attention as some of the other things that Facebook rolled out during the F8 conference in April , but one of the changes the social network made was to link user profiles to “community pages” — in effect, a kind of wiki-style page about a topic or an issue, but one created by an algorithm rather than...
Hard-core Digg users and fans of the link-sharing site — the so-called “Digg Nation” — spend a lot of their time trying to push their favorite links to the front page, competing with each other for the number of “diggs” their links get, and debating why certain links made it and others didn’t.

With more than 500 million registered users , Facebook is already a force to be reckoned with in the world of social networks.

As Facebook has become an increasingly powerful magnet for controversy — over privacy and the way it handles user information, but also over the sheer size and dominance of the social network — interest has grown in finding some kind of open alternative. Perhaps the most obvious sign of that is the frenzy of support for a new project called...

While Facebook has since backed off Cassandra, Digg...
