Facebook's Major Redesign  

In celebration of Facebook's sixth birthday, they are making dramatic changes to the design of their homepage. The biggest change to the design is that they are placing a new emphasis on search and it let's you sort through much more information without ever leaving the homepage. You can also send messages to people without having to navigate through the website. Overall, it has made messaging easier and the messaging through the inbox can be checked from a dropdown menu at the top and you can message from there too, all without having to leave the page. Also, the IM contact list is not hidden at the bottom, but is now located on the left sidebar. All in all it makes messaging much more accessible and easier to use. Although, redesign in the past has had negative reactions, I think this one will be much more accepted.
