The Changing face of Facebook in Social Media

Facebook has already become synonymous with Social Media. If someone is one social media he or she is connected to a network of people with whom a connection would only be a dream. To make things better for organizations and businesses Facebook has introduces the feature of Pages where a business can promote itself among its fans. Advertisements selling products and services have become common on the left hand side of the page as soon as you open facebook. Facebook has become so popular that Google the giant in the www services has to come up with the idea of G+ as facebook launched its own email service thus threatening Gmail.
Recently with the opening of Google+ for everyone it was facebook's turn to act and counter the steps taken by Google. Facebook with its 750 million users and the number one social networking website had to undergo some drastic changes which have been received with awe by many users.
The major changes incorporated in the Facebook page for a user is that now facebook will determine what story is important fro you and which story is not really important. The Importance of a Story will depend upon the friend who has updated it and the number of comments it has received although there are many other factors that will control it. Your login behavior will also be a factor in determining the ranks of the stories in your news feed. You can even mark which stories are not important for you.
The user will be able to see the activity on a group of friends selected and their updates will be updated in the news feeds on the user's account. The way or presenting photographs has undergone a drastic change which is really nice to see. Apart from that a scroll is there on the left had side of the browser that will give you the latest updates about your friends.
The Links that were present on the top left corner have been combined into a drop down. The war between Facebook and Google plus has just begun. Its only time that will be able to show the success of both these Giants in the Social Networking Arena.
