So I finally got around to making one of those lists and putting all of my friends and pages on it. Yep, it's so much better now. Bypassing Top Stories, for the win.

And Xeo, I just don't know.

Just logged in today and yeah, still back to the old layout. WTF is up with my account? lol...

What I ended up doing to combat the Top Stories at least was to make a new "list" and just put everyone in it and all my pages, that way it's kinda like the old feed.

I wish it would go back.

It's still the same new shitty layout for me.

I really wish we could just get rid of top stories and the ticker.

Now it's reverted back to the old again for me. You guys? ...

Ha, I have that for high school and Shipwreck people. I figure I will knock them off eventually.

Yeah, that's how it always is. And I'm still friends with more than half of these people simply because I went to high school with them, and I guess I don't want to offend them by deleting them from my friends list. It's a catch 22.

But with these new updates, it's doubtful I'll even be on facebook that often.

That sounds pretty harsh, heh.

It's pretty much FamilyBook too for me. This Ticker thing pretty much seals the deal, I'll check it maybe once a week if at all now.

I have a Facebook account, but only because I thought I was going to meet more Japanese people -- boy was I wrong. Now I only use it to check updates from different game companies -- I don't have any friends and everything is private. I used to use a Facebook-like clone called Mixi (a Japanese social networking site), but they slowly started kicking out foreigners as of 2008 (I got kicked out in August 2008) and now you need a Japanese cellphone to get in.

Yeah, that's why I have like three high school friends on my Facebook. The whole site really takes the piss out of going to reunions. Mine isn't for another couple years, but c'mon, you can see what everyone's doing these days.

I'm the loser who's only just NOW gotten out of college.

As for the changes, seems like people have finally calmed down, but we'll see how it all blows over when Mark Zuckerberg finally rolls out the Facebook Timeline.

Use cheat codes.

With all the new updates, I'm probably going to stop using it all together. Like you guys were saying, that's what happened to myspace, as well. It's like every time I sign onto facebook, the entire world has changed. And then I black out and have a nice dream about ponies.

Whelp, my FB is transforming back I guess. I see the ticker on the right now, but still don't see those weird triangles in the top left corners on my wall or whatever. Guess it's only a matter of time.

It was fun while it lasted... lol.

I go on facebook multiple times a day, leaving it open in a background tab while I do other things. I don't seem to have the Top News thing, but I do have all the other annoying changes.

I got a Google+ as soon as it was open to the public. I swear it was taunting me with the limited field trial. I think this is my link.

Also, I recently got a MyYearbook. It's like MySpace used to be. I swear, if you're female and have self-esteem issues, go there, slap up a semi attractive photo of yourself, and just wait for the mails to roll in about how gorgeous you are. I swear people there are desperate, but I love the compliments. XD

I think Facebook is sufficiently dead for me. Not that it's dead TO me, but that my feed is showing a lot less activity than usual, which is horribly depressing. It's like coming to the board to discover there have been maybe 2 posts in the last day.

I, too, usually hate things without giving them a try

(Also Xeo you have a Facebook? Add me!)

Oh my god, so much explosion of activity from Facebook rage. The irony is in people exchanging their Google+ info on it.

I forget what finally got me off of MySpace... I think it was the changes they kept making that drove everyone away.

I had a twitter account that I didn't use, and then the mass twitter hacking happened, and I still didn't use it. My myspace... I just never did anything other than fill out my profile once, and I never looked at it again. xD

Funny thing, what really killed Myspace for me was that so many people decided it would be cool to have music automatically playing when you visit their page. I hate that crap.

I got a MySpace when it first started and never returned. In fact, I actually can't remember what e-mail I used to create it.

I had a Twitter account for all of 5 minutes before I deleted it. Yeah, definitely not going back there.
