“Change Facebook Back To Normal !!”

9 comments

THAT’S THE TITLE OF A NEW FACEBOOK “Organization” page that was launched just a few hours ago.

Throughout the day and evening on Friday, Facebook friends were logging on and finding a mell of a hess on their Facebook page.  Instead of leading off with the listings of the most recent postings of their friends, they were getting random selections of posts that were inserted as many as 16 hours previously.

The only way you could get the expected listings was to click around on the index and found “Status Updates” which had to be clicked every time you log on.

So the inevitible happened…..a “friend”ly revolution was born and the Change Facebook Back to Normal !! group was spawned.  Apparently this bomb has really touched a lot of nerves because when I first found it at 11 am it already had 123,000 members.  Now here it is at 11:45 and the membership roster is up to 145,000 members.  Go Team, Go! 

I was glad to join and put in my 2¢ worth.  Will the “New Facebook” go the way of the “New Coke”?  Maybe we’ll find out in a few days.  The peasants have grabbed their pitchforks and are manning the barricades.

    Nothing will happen whatsoever. Every time FB makes another change everyone gets pissed off and writes letters and joins groups. No one in their management cares and nothing is ever changed. For such an incredibly popular website Facebook is incredibly poorly designed and completely non-responsive to its constituents.

    Facebok is a free site, so the programmers or whoever are in charge have nothing to lose if someone gets ticked off and leaves the site. They make their money off the advertising.

    Never thought I would read the words “Suck C?ck” on the FireGeezer. Look closely at the image of the fb group!

    Wow!  Thanks, Critic. 
    That one sure got by me.  I've taken corrective action.
