News Feed Driving You Crazy? Restore Facebook Status Updates to the Default (with Pictures)

Personally, I think this Live Feed - News Feed funny business is all about monetizing eyeballs. Maybe if you know most users won't bother to figure out how to customize their feeds and will receive exactly what you tell them is news...well, that surely sweetens the pot. Status Updates must be missing something though. Hmm... photos? apps?

Summary: Quick instructions and pictures how to to remove Facebook Live Feed and Restore Facebook Status Updates.   How to get your old Facebook back.   Here are a few easy steps to change your Facebook back to something similar to the old Facebook format.

Don’t like the new Facebook format that shows Live Feed and View News Feed?

Me either.

Facebook’s “News Feed” is now Facebook’s determination of what stories Facebook thinks you’ll most enjoy and based on your past history interacting with the site. Facebook makes this choice based on  how much activity and attention an item has seen (from friends commenting and liking it) and how likely Facebook thinks you might interact with that post. Here’s how to fix it…

Facebook’s new “Live Feed,” is theoretically the same real-time feed from your friends that you’re used to. If you scroll to the very bottom of the Live Feed Page, You can click “Edit Options” to set the frequency of feeds and adjust which friends you hear more and less from.

Unfortunately, you’ll have to click on “Status Update” at the top of the screen, but at least, theoretically, with the edit options set, you can restore your full flow of feeds.

Step 1: Click “Live Feed” at the top of the Facebook page to activate it.  Live feed is most like the original Facebook page.

Step 2: Use the right scroll bar to scroll to the bottom of the facebook home page.

Step 3: Click the “edit options” link to change the options for the Facebook Live Feed

Step 4: Change the “number of friends” setting to a high number to get all the new feeds.  Use the text boxes if you want to receive more messages from some friends and less from others.

More steps below for setting your default Facebook Home page.

.

FACEBOOK HOME (DEFAULT) APPLICATION

The application at the top of your Facebook list is the default screen when you visit Facebook or when you click the Facebook HOME link.  Use the steps below to choose which Facebook screen is at the top of your Facebook list.

1. Locate the LIST of Facebook options that are in the top left corner of your Facebook home screen
   
2. Click the “more” link at the bottom of the list
   
3. Click, then Drag to the top of the list, the application you want as  your starting, or “home” application
   
4. Click the “Home” link to activate your new default Facebook home page.

The New, New, New Facebook: Hundres of Thousands Organize in Protest

Although the latest Facebook homepage changes seem relatively minor compared to some of the more drastic moves the company has made in the past, there are once again hundreds of thousands (if not millions) of users voicing their frustration.

The most visible group to emerge so far: “PLEASE GIVE US OUR OLD NEWS FEED BACK!” (caps and exclamation point included). The group will likely cross 500,000 members this morning, as more users catch wind of their friends joining it via the News Feed.

While much of the frustration seems like the usual anger and resistance to change you always see when any major website pushes a redesign, I have heard a few valid complaints about the new Facebook ():

1. The “Live Feed” isn’t all that live. Seemingly, you need to refresh to see new stuff, as there are no alerts when new content is available. That’s not completely true: if you’re viewing the “News Feed,” you’ll get alerts when new content is available, but that’s not immediately clear.

2. The “News Feed” isn’t very good. The goal of the feature is to be a digest of what’s important in your network, much like “Highlights” in the previous iteration. My own opinion: I’d give it a B- … most of the stories seem interesting, though nearly 24 hours old at this point. Given the “Live Feed” now includes more information and is hence more cluttered, it would seem the “News Feed” should be more up-to-date to emphasize important happenings.

3. Facebook didn’t give much warning about the changes. Unlike previous iterations where announcements were prominently placed on member homepages, Facebook seemingly just flipped the switch on this change without doing much to prepare users.

Facebook did address a number of issues that members had with the previous iteration by re-adding information like new friends of friends and changes in relationship status into the feed, and by moving events and birthdays back above the fold. However, those issues seem like they were light years ago and mostly forgotten.

The problem here seems to be that Facebook didn’t add much in the way of new and exciting, but rather just made a few incremental changes that make sense from a UI perspective, but once again frustrate and confuse those that are resistant to change (and don’t read Facebook’s blog … or Mashable ()).

Will it blow over? You have to think so given Facebook’s history of surviving far more significant revolts. Further, the issues with this latest change seem fairly easy for the social network to address with small tweaks to the product.

What kind of day has it been....

Now I know I don't generally write anythin' too important here, but far too much has happened tonight to keep it all rattlin' around in my head.

First off, I'm mad as all hell at Jason Stackhouse.  Now, I've loved this guy like a brother for YEARS, but I just can't figure him out lately.  After tellin' me the other night that he was through with those vampire-haters at the Fellowship of the Sun, he nearly runs me off the road tonight to tell me that he's been hangin 'round them all again.  Plus, he's tellin' me he thinks the FotS is gonna be lookin for Jess around Bon Temps.

Great.

Now I don't know what to do.  We've already kept @JessicaHamby hidin' in the shadows for the last few days because of all those 'MISSING' posters papered all over downtown Bon Temps (above), and now I've got half a mind that says that Jason may have been the one to let it slip that she's been around here.  How else would they know?!

Girlfriend in peril?  Check.

Suspicious of best friend?  Check.

Plus, it doesn't look like I'm the only one having trouble around Bon Temps tonight.  I'm not one to gossip, but i think somethin' may be up with Sookie and Eric... I'm sure it'll make it out of Bon Temps soon enough...

If anyone's got any suggestions, I'd sure love to hear 'em.  I'm at my wits end trying to come up with new ways to keep my Jessica safe.  God knows I'd do anything for that girl...
