I saw a little pop-up in the corner, but I dismissed it not knowing what the changes were :P

I know some people are going to bash facebook for this, but I actually think it looks pretty sweet.

What a load of absolute bullshit. The media will make up any random crap for the sake of writing a useless article about it. Where, I do agree that is looks similar to the layout, it makes navigating easier. How could they say it's "very similar" when Microsoft has chosen the same layout in the Windows 8 Messages app, and it has been implemented in Android 4.0. There's no need to start causing a fuss about a design change.

No, it's just the Daily Mail.

Anyway, good for Facebook. Moving with the times. Regardless, I think they're destined to fail at some point.

I haven't actually noticed. Unless it was a new feature in the new iPad app.. If that's the case, I like it.
