Segacs's World I Know

We knew it was coming, but that doesn’t make this announcement any more welcome:

The new layout for Facebook doesn’t actually streamline anything. Instead, it forces a half-dozen clicks to get the information that was previously available in one click.

What the Facebook developers won’t tell you is that this is exactly the point: More clicks means more ads, which means more revenue… at whatever cost to user satisfaction.
