Facebook is getting yet another facelift.
The social networking site said it’s redesigning the profile pages of its 500-million-plus users to make it easier for them to tell their stories.
A bigger emphasis will be placed on visuals — from photos to images of users’ interests.
A new biography section will include a set of the most recent photos your friends have “tagged” you in.
Users can also feature important friends in their profile, while previously only random selection appeared.
And, in addition to listing their job, users can now add the projects they worked on.
It’s all a move toward creating a more complete picture of a person — something that’s bound to appeal to Facebook’s advertisers.
The latest redesign isn’t making any changes to the site’s privacy policy and will be available to all users by early next year.
