No but it's actually really well layed out, you should keep it for a while as it's going to make everyone do it eventually anyway.
And this I pray, that your love would abound still, more and more with real knowledge and all discernment. Be prepared to preach the gospel at a moment's notice. Do you know the gospel well enough to do so yourself? Be ready.

There's no way to go back once you get it early. You should probably just try to adapt now, since they will be pushing it out to everyone soon anyways.

Didn't they do this before a while back? They came up with a new look (the one now) and let people test it out, but forced it upon everyone anyway? Or, was that another social network.. I'm not on any others (actively), so it must've been FB o.o

I also second this.

I have put off upgrading to the new profile until FB comes and changes it overnight for me like I know they're dying to do. : I

I didn't push any buttons or anything, but they went ahead and changed me over to the new format. :/
So, yeah, they're going to force this change on everyone.

I miss the days back when FB was not so much like Myspace. No crazy aps --just friends talking to friends.
"Therefore we do not lose heart. Though outwardly we are wasting away, yet inwardly we are being renewed day by day. For our light and momentary troubles are achieving for us an eternal glory that far outweighs them all. So we fix our eyes not on what is seen, but on what is unseen. For what is seen is temporary, but what is unseen is eternal." 2 Corinthians 4:16-18

I got rid of facebook this week. My friends are in this puzzling mix of " ohmygoshWHY?! D: " and " Good for you! :D " Once I saw they were making this switch I was just sort of like, "Good riddance, and then it will be another mandatory update that I have to get used to, again...and the same old drama and constant having to keep up with people instead of having a real conversation...okay, yeah, I'm done." lol

Fourthed.

Man, I think the worse change is the new noise they have for chat. They had a fine sound and now I want to punch the computer every time I hear it.

Apparently if you deactivate your facebook account for ten minutes (Not delete, do NOT delete!) it'll revert back to the original. Source

if it wasn't for facebook i wouldn't hardly have any friends, most of my friendships are made via facebook (sadly) so i have to disagree with you there
