Facebook had announced it was working on a redesign earlier this year. In May, an idea of the redesigned was released to developers. But surely, now it’s easier to understand what’s going on with the people you have been linked to. The three main features called filters, stream and publisher makes it lot easier to use and user friendly. Filters make sure that the user stay updated on what the friends they are linked are posting.

The user can also create their own filters using Friend Lists. The user can also filter by applications, like Photos, videos etc. The other attraction is called stream. The stream shows the user all the posts from his friends in real-time. This keeps them up to date on everything that’s happening. User can also control who appears there. Next is Publisher. By using this user can publish his status, photos, notes and more into the stream. Posts show up both in the user’s profile, and on his friends’ home pages. The publisher lets the user to share his thoughts and content like photos and notes into the stream. The user can have one stream on the Wall on the profile, and one stream on the home page that represents the on-going, flowing conversation between him and his friends.

The focus seems to be on getting the information in real time, the ability to easily filter the information displayed, and making it easier to post links, photos and videos. The other changes in the redesign are like new menu Bar, mini-Feed and wall are now under the wall tab, a new “Bio” box, complete rearrangement of tabs for user’s wall, info, photos, and apps, Facebook Apps are now found in the “Boxes” tab, users can add extra tabs and user can user his webcam to take a photo or record a video to add to his collection or post on the Wall of his friends or relatives.

Facebook Application Review of No Reservations

Eating & Traveling with FACEBOOK


Have you heard about the show called No reservations hosted by Anthony Bourdain??, well my friends if you did I have no doubt you will enjoy this Facebook Review, because yes you are guessing right...they made a Facebook Application.

The No Reservations Facebook Application is basically the shows idea translated into a Facebook App letting all the users be the hosts of the adventure. If you have never heard about the show, the main idea of it is traveling and trying as many different dishes as destinations reached.

When you install this Facebook Application you will find yourself with a world map with some land marks, and in the lower right side the description of each of the signs inside the map. Basically the main idea is to allow you to locate according all your favorite places restaurants and create a Review of them so as to earn points. Those points will let the user improve their reputation and also change the points for prizes.


The good think about this Application is that everyone can add their favorite place regardless the scale of the business allowing each of the users share what they like the most and maybe who knows catching Anthonys attention to make a show in that country.

So basically this is all there is for this Facebook Review, my qualification is a solid 4.2 out of 5, honestly I love the show, I love eating & I love traveling so it makes sense right?

Facebook Application Review of My Snow Buddy

Find your Snow Buddy on FACEBOOK

Today Facebook Application Review is about the new app called My Snow Buddy. This useful Application connects skiers/snowboarders from British Columbia to each other and also allows them to organize or find rides up to any of the local mountains.

The mountains included in this Facebook Application are Whistler, Hemlock, Grouse, Cypress and Seymour planning to add more titles soon.

Once you install this Facebook Application the first thing that you have to do is to fill a very short and concise profile detailing what kind of sports do you practice so as to make the right listing and let you find your "Snow Buddy".


The main idea of the creators of this Application as they told me while I was doing the right research to write this Facebook Review was not only to help people meet new people with the same passion for the snow sports but also to encourage people to share rides so as to reduce emissions, which is something that I totally support. That's why inside this app you can either post a ride hosted by you, listing all the details of the offer such as time of the ride, available seats, type of car, etc and also apply to people that already posted their offer and are willing to share their ride with you.

Some other features of this Facebook App, are weather conditions and a Sell & Buy market where you can post the equipment that you want sell and maybe(who knows?) make some extra money and/or find that board that you desperately wanted to buy but couldn't afford to buy it new.

So my qualification for this Facebook Review is 4.2 out of 5, design, usability and presentation of the information are very well achieved. I liked it and I am just hoping to see more mountains soon.

Facebook Application Review of Friend Grade

Facebook will tell you How good your friends are!!

Today the Facebook Application Review is about the new app called Friend Grade and is basically about knowing how good do your friends know you.

Basically this fun and simple Facebook Application is about ranking your friends by grading them from A+ to F based on how accurately they answer a short list of 5 questions after you answer them.


The smart thing about this Facebook Application is that is simple and it's viral, meaning that once your part of answering the 5 multiple choice you need the help of your peers in order to see the final score resulting on a chain reaction of people using the same application checking out how well do they friends know them.

Overall this is a simple fast and fun Facebook App, and the qualification for this Facebook Review is 4 out of 5.
