I hate it too! I couldn't even change my status.

if you go to your settings and change Language to uk english it will change back

That was a temporary fix yesterday. The US was switched to the new format before the UK was, and once the UK was switched over, the news ticker came back....

If it's not broke don't fix it, that's why I love this board.

YES!!! hint hint hint to the admins in case they are getting any ideas.... 8-)

First it was NETFLIX, now it's FB. STOP already!!!

Anyone on Google Plus? It's too new to have been changed. :)

Hey Glass! What is google plus? Never heard of it.

And I hate the changes at FB too. I don't go there often but yesterday was horrible.

Netflix is a paid service and any changes they do affect a service you are paying for. Facebook is free. It took me no time to get the hang of it and move on. Change is good.

Near as I can make out Google Plus is google's version of FB.

I like that you can sort your friends into groups, called circles, and pick who gets to read your posts. Still learning.
