Facebook has unveiled some major changes to the site. The new intro for users includes pictures and certain vital information.
“The profile begins with a quick overview of basic information such as where you’re from, where you went to school, and where you work – the kinds of conversation starters you share with people you’ve just met or exchange with old friends as you get reacquainted,” writes Facebook Software Engineer Josh Whiteman.
Users will also be able to create new groups of friends, highlighting them in certain ways and grouping them in significant ways. Finding particular photos is now easier with new search functions.
The profile also gives you new ways to share your interests and activities, added Whiteman. You can list the projects you worked on at your job, classes you took in school, your favorite musicians and sports teams, and more. You can also share your life philosophy by connecting to the religions, political affiliations, and people you follow and admire. All your interests and experiences are now represented with images, making your entire profile a more compelling visual experience.
