Yet another Facelift of FaceBook

Posted on : 12-02-2010 | By : Ranjith | In : Tech world

It is about a week since Facebook revealed its new design to users world wide..   the design in a look is neat and good.. but i feel like they have made a mess up regarding few items..

The Notifications were earlier shown on the right side portion of the bottom bar which used to be static at that place ..   it always helped to know about the notification almost instantly..  in the new design they have made the notifications appear on the TOP bar which gets scrolled out along with the page this makes it a uneasy to know the notifications if the page is scrolled a little bit down .   I feel this as a real  discomfort  with notifications because of this change.

Some times when adding friends the add to list is not shown .. especially when someone refers a friend.. this is making it difficult for me to manage friends when you have a lot of friends..   and the process of adding an unlisted  friend to a list is cluttered now.. you have to select the list take the edit list  and browse through the friends list and add the single friend to that list.  the older way of adding a friend to a list was easier to do

i hope facebook will take care of these usability issues in their next FaceLift

The Foundation Stone Laying Ceremony of InfoPark Kochi Phase II  at kunnathunadu & puthencuruz village of kunnathunadu taluk will be done by Hon. Chief Minister of Kerala Shri V.S. Achuthanandan on 28th nov 2009(saturday)  at 11.30 am.. The Functions will be held at Kochi infopark Campus at Kakkanad.

It sounds like a very good gesture from the part of kerala towards the Development of IT infrastructure in the state despite the backlash of the much hyped Smart City Kochi Project.  My prayers for the Project to be successful and a great milestone in Development of  the Country
