Facebook Design Refresh Coming

Here we go, get ready for another round of grumbling masses having a hard time adapting to change. Facebook is revamping its design. You can check out some screenshots on the French site below.

I do like the new elements, the clearer navigation in the left column, the icons in the main nav bar. The only thing I don’t agree with is the location of the search field. IMHO it should be in the right upper corner and have the main nav items reside where the search field resides now. That way all the nav is located in the same general area, making it more obvious and more efficient (less eye/mouse movements to navigate).

Great post by Vanessa Miemis about what’s next for the web on the social level. Hope to be able to post some material on the media front soon as well.

I wrote a post a few days ago, Is Twitter a Complex Adaptive System?, that proposed the idea that Twitter may be evolving into an entity of sorts, a collective intelligence. I’ve come across some new posts that are amplifying that meme, and I just want to keep the thoughtstream going.
