Facebook made new design to some users

Facebook is notorious for tweaking their layout on a regular basis. Back on December 19th, we got word that they were testing a new design and that it would go live in the coming weeks. Now, it seems that they have finalized the design.

The notable changes are as follows:
Search bar moved from the right to the left-center (next to Facebook logo) Navigation bar has been simplified
Sidebar is scaled down (similar to Facebook Lite) Duplicate link to profile is gone Settings and login/logout have been combined into an "account" dropdown
Application bar is gone (bookmarked apps get listed on left sidebar) Notifications are gone, replaced by a counter next to the application link in left sidebar Many of these changes were expected and announced back in October at the Facebook Developer Garage. Users seem to  be fairly pleased with the simpler design. The notifications change is a big deal, as it will prevent the never  ending spam that users receive from application notifications. Overall, users are saying that the design is more  streamlined and snappier.
