Yes, that one could also be a big advantage - though I guess I'd have to spend quite some time making my choice. Probably I'd choose the same status updates but in my case this is more to watch Twitter updates from my closer friends than the entire timeline.

What I'd like to see is the ability to pick which tab is your default. I'd definitely set it to Status Updates.

Yes, adding a way to filter what apps should get preference definitely makes sense as well. As of now the potential to aggregate all types of content on Facebook is huge and I think it will be only logical if they implement it.

that would be pretty cool ... wouldn't be surprised if they add one, especially with the "Great Apps" program. It would be a way to give their preferred apps more exposure.

I love the new tabs myself - the only thing that still seem to be missing is a tab to aggregate all the activities of my friends with various applications. This would have provided another source of interesting content (the way FriendFeed does) and it would probably familiarized a lot more people with lifestreaming.

I still, purposely, use the old design. I tried out the new one for a day and it really was messing with my eyes. Maybe I'll give it another try if the news feed is better -

Their new design is slowly growing on me.
