Sometimes I sit and ponder things a bit too long and then I start to ramble. Does that happen to you, too?

I'm one of the few who haven't made the change to the new Facebook profile and for several good reasons. I know that they're making this valiant attempt to jump into this realm where photos and video are rulers and the era of social sharing is dominated by what we see, not what we talk about, however, I still believe I need to have a say about things (as defined here, in my blog that I'm resurfacing after a year of being silent).

Dearest Facebook, if you're going to bring photos and videos to the forefront of the user experience, then make it better than this garbage. Don't drag me off to another page to view the larger photo. Don't make me go somewhere else to comment on the photo. Find better ways to give me more information about items on the page that are relevant to me. You're giving me this strange paragraph of information below the user's name that tells me some information about them, but really? It looks terrible and like something that was created out of a DOS system in 1990. And thank you for making me take one extra step by having to click on another button to communicate with my friend . It's been awhile.

Lame.
