Facebook is serving 400 million users with style on its 6th birthday

Facebook is celebrating its 6th birthday and is now serving 400 million users and still rapidly growing. Last two months Facebook hits 350 million users. It took two months for Facebook to have another 50 million. On the other side, Twitter has 18 million users. So far away from that of Facebook. I watched CNN and saw people interviewed about twitter.Twitter is just not so popular compared to Facebook. 

Facebook launches its new design. Few days from now 400 million users will have the new design. I've already have it. With the new homepage, you can view your messages, add friends and see notifications, view photos, groups and other stuffs without ever navigating away to another page. It has more emphasis on search. In fact, the search bar is on top of the homepage. Also Facebook apps are place on the sidebar. You can open them without navigating away. It was usually on the bottom left.


Facebook's new design offers easy messaging. You can view and send messages in drop down menu at the top without again leaving the homepage. Also your  IM contact lists is moved to left sidebar.
