Michael Arrington's post got me all fired up to write this.
Sure change is good. I welcome it, but ONLY if it makes my life easier, and in this case specifically, if it makes for easier networking/connecting with my friends.
So here are some things that I've been trying to figure out about the new facebook and jeez, are they annoying.
Sample 1
Lets say I want to use one of the application (Give Gift) to use on one of my friends.
Oh guess what? I can't cancel it!!???! Where is the goddamn cancel button? sure I found a workaround. You click on the 'write post' and the box disappears, but is that how Facebook had intended it?
Sample 2
So I played around some more and found out that some apps .. ahem.. DID have a 'x' on the top right. I was delighted! Ahh, an option to cancel right?
Wrong. What that 'x' does is prompts you to remove the application! Sweet stuff! I bet the developers are delighted!
This is enough for me to get the old facebook back. Sure bring on the new stuff, but at least test for basic functionality before you make it mandatory.
Puja Madan : most likely to stick to the old facebook till its around
