The New Facebook

by Lori

If you have not logged into Facebook recently, you may notice things have changed when you do.  When you first sign on the News Feed is shown first so you can catch up on things quickly.  Facebook hopes this makes it easier for you to see what is important before you see everyone’s updates. 

Then on the top you will see Live Feed.  Live Feed is the most recent updates from all your Facebook friends.  This shows you everything.  What I love is that birthday’s will also be included in LIVE FEED.  I have felt like a bad Facebook friend because I did not know how everyone kept up with all their “friends” birthdays. 

Now one thing you may want to change, and if you are MY Facebook friend you already saw this, but by default Facebook will only show you 250 of your friends.  So if you have over 250 friends you will miss some of your friends updates.  The good news is you can change this setting. 

How To Change Settings:

First Click Home (even if you are on Home, click it again to refresh)

Then click Live Feed

Scroll down to the bottom where it says EDIT OPTIONS (it is on the same line where it says OLDER POSTS)

1

Select EDIT OPTIONS and you will see a box

2

Put a large number in there (any number!)

I think this change will be a good change, it is just hard getting use to something new.  If you have any questions let me know!

    Thanks for sharing! I just went to FB and edited my options, I had no idea about changing that number to see more people. I had people there that were on "hide" that I didn't intend to hide so I fixed it!
    Great info in easy to understand language :)
    Thanks,
    Bethany
  • Girl, thanks for this. I am sooo lame. I am behind in the learning curve constantly. I appreciate this post.

    I love you... Very much my friend. Have a fantastic week. Hugs.
  • Lori, I'm glad you're such a geek! I also love the birthdays listed on my Facebook home page. I was missing some and felt bad. I miss you my friend and will have to email you an update.

    Love you,
    Deb
  • Thanks Lori! I didn't know all that...so I appreciate the help!
  • I saw the information on your feed yesterday. I guess I don't get the option since I don't have 250+ friends :) - at least I didn't see it.
