New Facebook just reads my mind!

After the media frenzy over Facebook lately over privacy and their terms and conditions, Facebook has tried to gloss it over with a trendy new look. Time reports that Facebook wants more contemplation in their status updates, and more power over who you get news from - because let's face it, you don't want to see love birds comparing themselves to Scooby and Shaggy sharing love notes over a status update and a random, jealous person getting all hot under the collar.

It also creates the intention too, that it's okay for people to cry, and moan about stuff going on. To each their own, I guess.

The great thing though, is you can use your friend groupings to only get news about people you want - I do this already to help with my privacy settings, but now I will only get news from people I actually want to bother hearing about. (30 out of 277, for me!)... so it cuts out all the clutter for me.

And the layout? Much, much better I think. I don't know what all the fuss is about!
