New Facebook Design

Logged on to Facebook this morning – and found I had a new design for the Homepage

Everything looks a lot more spaced out – more white space – and the news feed feels much more prominent on the left had side, the sidebar is now on the right and again feels a lot less cluttered – what is interesting, is that there are NO ads on the screen outside the news feed… I have no idea what that means to to the people selling them.

Overall – I like the design – I think you can force it for yourself by clicking this link.

Extraordinary Virtual Earth Implementation

image

Just spotted this over on Steve Clayton’s blog, a great implmentation of the Virtual Earth maps, using Deep Earth and Silverlight. The zooming capabilities of this map are fantastic, and the level of detail (take a look at the center of London for instance) is astonishing. I zoomed in to take a look at Terminal 4 at London’s Heathrow airport.

As Steve says – it’s too cool for school! Click on the map – or here to take a look.

Tiny Twitter – for your Smartphone…

imageDo you use SMS to send messages to Twitter on the move? If so, you should probably check out TinyTwitter, which as the name suggests is a Twitter client with a tiny footprint that runs on Windows Mobile devices.

Big hat-tip to Jason Langridge for pointing this one out.

By the way – you can find me on Twitter here.
