Facebook Rolls Out Redesigned Profile Pages 211
alphadogg writes "The [Facebook Profile] changes include a clustered listing of biographical information under the user name at the top of the page, including such details as the person's job, hometown, relationship status, where they went to college, what languages they speak and birthdate. Beneath that will appear a set of the five most recent photos that a user allows to be posted at their profile page." The changes unsurprisingly are being met with mixed opinions ranging from rage to anger.

Not really.
They should also edit the last line to read, "The changes unsurprisingly are being met with mixed opinions ranging from rage to complete apathy."

Yep - it's on the front page of CNN, too.
Next we get to find out what Zuckerberg found between his teeth yesterday. Stay tuned!
Fucking losers. Facebook is so 2009.

I don't think we want Facebook "engineers" redeployed anywhere else. It took 12 of them to write this new profile page. I'd prefer they spend their time on things I don't use.

To be fair, I doubt that the majority of the time was spent on actual coding. I imagine a lot of it was spent on things like UI design (positioning the graphics, buttons, etc.) and aesthetics.
Judging from the result I can't help but wonder if FB just gave the team a year's supply of whiskey [xkcd.com].

Hello! Your entire first grade class had the same teacher. Your friends know the name of your pets and the street you lived on. Your cousins sure as hell know the rest of the questions like mother's maiden name etc.
Why not just give everyone the default code of 0000 or 12345? It's about the same level of security.
Explains why social sites are always down when I try to sign up - little Bobby Tables was in my class.

I've heard that in the next release in addition to showing hometown and birthdate, they will also show last four digits of your social security number, mother's maiden name, favorite movie, and the name of your first pet.

Actually, I hated The Wall - beyond 'Another Brick (pt 2)' I found it dry and tedious. I much prefer Dark Side of the Moon & Wish You Were Here.
