Jeremy and I dedicate this entire episode to the changes hitting Facebook.
What do we like? What don’t we like? How do we think people will react?
Jeremy is concerned about how older users (a big growth area) will react to the changes. Some of the changes are admittedly rather big. But change is how Facebook got to the top in the first place.
We’re fans of subscriptions, and we think this feature is a response to Google+.
Timeline is a beautiful and striking reimagining of the Facebook profile, but will it be too drastic for some users? We would love to hear your feedback.
I mean this in all honestly, this is our best episode yet.
