Facebook users protest home page changes
Yes, again! As the popular social networking website, Facebook continues its makeover policy, a “Change Facebook Back to Normal” group at the website claimed slightly more than a million members urging the social networking giant to change back.
On Friday, Facebook modified its news feed feature to let members of the world’s leading social-networking service catch up on tidbits they may have missed while away from the website. However this change, as like the previous times, yet again triggered ire amongst the millions of users that prefer things remain the same.
“If it ain’t broke, don’t fix it,” a Facebook user with the screen name Carlos Deleon wrote on a protest group chat page clearly stating the preference for the former page and in protest against the company’s policy to continuously introduce changes in its homepage.
The Facebook’s new feature enables the users to switch between getting real time streams of news or activities taking place and the highlights of what their friends have shared in the preceding 24 hours. The new concept of Live Feed option funnels updates and news about online friends’ activities to Facebook home pages.
