The new Facebook News Feed will look like this
This afternoon, Facebook announced that it will be rolling out a new Facebook news feed. Here’s your first look!
It will be seamless across all formats (desktop, mobile, tablet) and will look like this:
The new interface will have the feed take up more real estate than previous versions:
The feed will aggregate the popular content your friends post
The same goes for when your friends all like the same page/event/photo
Facebook will also do you the favour of aggregating content about your interests and serving them up to you in one place:
Finally, Facebook is allowing you to segregate content, allowing you to peruse the feed as you would read a newspaper – by section. Friends-only, brands-only, photos-only, music-only, specific interest-only, etc are all options
What do you think of the changes?
Find out more ab0ut the news feed and put your name on the waiting list.

I'm usually sick and tired of Facebook making random changes to their UX that don't seem to make any positive impact to the site, but I'm actually really excited about this.
@KarrieKwong I'm pretty excited for the look & feel of this, but we need to do some thinking about how this will impact brands.
I'm a beauty-obsessed, puppy-loving, cupcake-baking, digital strategizing girl-about-town based in Toronto. Social media, nail polish and bows are a few of my favourite things. I talk a lot. 
[...] how they’re feeling or what they’re doing. This change, coupled with the roll-out of Facebook’s realtime newsfeed further positions the social platform as a competitor to Twitter for micro-blogging life updates [...]
