Facebook changing its home page..

Facebook is comming up with a changed interface for the homepage. Instead of pushing it on to the users they decide to put a small note on every ones profile that the home page is going to change. They also put a link to preview the new homepage. 
This fosters discussions in the facebook blogs by the users. The facebook executives can then have a first cut view of users reactions on it.

"Changes to the Home page are coming soon
Learn about the new features ahead of time. This is happening soon; check out the home page tour now."
I guess this is why face book wins over other social networking webportals. --
I just added the photo of the forthcoming changes to the blogpost (Venkat)
