New Facebook

Contrary to most people I love the new Facebook. They're only 3 things I'm ever concerned with when looking at someone's profile which they've incorporated into the new design:

1. Their wall
2. Their info
3. Their pictures

I also think the links are better labelled, and the layout of the nested tab system is very easy to understand.

Sadly though, it appears the Facebook team isn't as confident in their new redesign as they should be and instead have littered the entirety of their site with tool tips which ordinarily wouldn't be too bad were it not for the way they designed them.

Firstly the tool tips aren't naturally part of the design and they stand out when you first load a page. This detracts from the main content and instead of taking in the new layout, you're busying trying to read all the orange boxes everywhere.

Secondly there is an option to remove the tool tips once you read them, and once you remove them there's no distinguishable way to get them back. This makes the user less likely to remove them and leave the layout in that jumbled mess.

1. If your layout is easy to navigate you shouldn't have to have help scattered everywhere
2. If you need help it should be easily discoverable
