Upcoming design changes to Facebook pages

We just got word that as part of a larger effort to improve user experience and promote consistency across the site, Facebook will be modifying Page and Profile layouts by simplifying how identity is managed and displayed.

Changes to the layout will include the following:

•  All tab widths are changing from 760 to 520 pixels

•  Boxes will no longer appear on Pages or Profiles. This means that Pages will no longer include the Boxes tab, or the boxes that currently exist on the left-hand column of your Wall and Info tab, underneath your Page’s profile picture. You can move the content that currently exists in Boxes to a custom tab.

•  Pages will no longer be able to implement iFrames on their Page. Custom/application tabs will be the exclusive integration point for applications on Facebook Pages and Profiles. All custom content will need to be in FBML on a seperate, custom tab.

Groom updates Facebook and Twitter status during his wedding

Why would I want a Facebook page? Why do I want to use 140 characters to tell everyone what I had for lunch? I don’t want the whole world to have access to my personal life. These are often the comments we receive from clients that believe social media can be a bit obtrusive.  While this argument is valid there are some who completely embrace sharing every bit of their lives,  including their wedding, with the general public. Not sure if this groom was trying to mock the over sharing of today’s society or genuinely found it necessary to update his Facebook and Twitter status during his wedding. You decide.
