Originated as “The Facemash” Facebook is one of the phenomena which hit the world since Napster. Facebook is a global social networking website which is own privately by Mark Zuckerberg. Myspace are among the top competitors to Facebook but it seems today, that Facebook is still on the roll. Though, there are a few times which Facebook faced a clitical conflict with it’s “devotees”.
One of the main problems which caused the trouble was the upgrading or “makeover” of Facebook layout design. The purposes of the changes are actually for the good of the users themselves. “We want to make sure it is easy for people to push and pull information in the form of bite-size content rather than quickly” said Chamath Palihapitiya, Vide President of Marketing, Facebook. Although the change is for the best of the users, elements of layout should also be taken note of.
“You can click over and view the real-time stream. One problem though is that the Live Feed continues to refresh as new posts are entered. Each time that happens the screen changes focus and you have to scroll to figure out where you were when your reading got interrupted. Facebook needs to figure out how to stream the updates without refreshing the screen or changing focus while you're in the middle of reading.” –Tony Bradley, PC World.
