F*ck My Facebook!

Ben_Hoffman
Facebook has a new layout... and it sucks! Ben Hoffman takes a look in this week's Tech Report.

The infoMania Tech Report is a weekly segment where technology guru Ben Hoffman takes a look at the newest tech products, gadgets and video games. It has been called "the funniest tech show on the web." (No source for that quote is available at this time. In fact, there's a good chance it was made up.)

infoMania is a half-hour satirical news show that airs on Current TV. The show puts a comedic spin on the 24-hour chaos and information overload brought about by the constant bombardment of the media. Hosted by Conor Knighton and co-starring Brett Erlich, Sarah Haskins, Ben Hoffman, and Sergio Cilli, the show airs on Thursdays at 10 pm Eastern and Pacific Times and can be found online at current.com/infomania. And make sure to check out our facebook profile for special features at http://infomaniafacebook.com.

    • yeah well theres many things that suck and yet we can't do anything about it, when I said something in myb, the mods there censored me and it sucked because I broke no rules or their rules were losely based but yet I can't fight them cause I have no right there.

      Just like facebook, they won't change unless you have a a army of angry me members then maybe you can change what sux there.

    • OH! Okay! Now I see what people are panicing about! They added features that makes it twice as easy to post pics,videos & whatever! Yeeeeeeeeah my page had that "New" lay out back when I started on the site like a year ago,so like what's the big deal anyway?

    • FaceBook changed their lay out? Well I didn't get any real changes on mine other then I have to do an additional step now to add my music clips of the week! But They didn't change anything for me! HA HA! Well...To bad for the people who got the changes I guess! I got changes as an optional thing on MySpace! Kinda cool because I have all this stuff I can do there that very few people know too much about! I am STILL waiting for Twitter to change their layout,but I doubt those twits will anytime soon!

    • I don't see what the problem is, I just started not too long ago, and, comparing the new to the old, all they did was move around some stuff. The old layout is still there, they just wanted to make it easier on the user. I actually think that this one is only slightly frustrating, but nothing I couldn't handle.

    • Why is this interesting, just like anybody else, I hate the new facebook lay out, they need to pick just one and stick with it.

      I do believe facebook is trying to be more like myspace, and myspace is trying to be more facebook. But seriously I hate the new facebook layout.

    • News presented in this manner is brilliant. Exaggerated expressions truly get the point across and help viewers to see how a majority of people feel about the issue. Bravo.

    • That was entirely excellent. Well played and well written. The entire bit where he threw the table and punched the sound guy was definitely worth re-watching.

      The whole thing had just the right amount of sarcasm, with the right amount being 100%

    • I just joined facebook and I cant even figure out how to change my display pic...... Maybe Im just too used to myspace's easyness of clicking: "make this my display pic" option????

    • The only thing don't like about it is instead of my all sexy layout now i have adds or some shit on the side... it's like WTH is that about? blek!

      I was in control with the old one... and the new one... I see no true advantage to the changes. If someone does see the changes to have some great value, msg me, as that would make me feel better.

      I'm not all mad.
      I just miss the pretty graphics and don't know how to override the new layout design yet.. hack hack hack

    • Since I linked my twitter to my facebook I stopped using facebook, (other than the mobile iphone site which didn't change) I was like cool be more like twitter because I like twitter, than I thought for a sec. Facebook should just be themselves, than I remembered why I didn't like facebook, or myspace, because they are always changing there shit around, twitter! Please don't change, or at least don't try to impress others, my favorite dipiction of facebook is the super news "hooked up" I wonder how super news would of type casted twitter, I think something along the lines of a supernerd villan that wants to take over the world, I'm on my iPhone so I can't hotlink but check out super news- "hooked up" btw I hate iTunes, myspace, and facebook, and yet love twitter.

    • I think that "I hate the new Facebook Layout" groups have become a fad, just like making "Let's make the biggest group on Facebook!" groups. Both. Annoying. Please. Stop. Ha!

    • anyone notice that they are reporting on the new facebook layout being hated, but not the new current.com layout being hated? I hate both new layouts equally and voice my opinion on current about current as well, but didn't get any press on that one....

    • Not being a fan of social networking sites and having not checked out facebook in a few weeks, I didn't know that they changed anything until I saw this. Once again I have to keep reminding myself I am at work and can not laugh too loudly. This totally made my day.

    • Several of my friends are STILL complaining about it. While there are some weak points to it, I really don't see the big deal, and it made me realize that no matter what you do, you will never please the masses. Some even nitpick it, as some complain about the "curved edges of out pictures". Yeah, like you're really going to need those few pixels. To this day nine tenths of requests/side panel "news" is of "hate the new layout". Ugh. I have been ranting about the ranters too much, obviously. This video is way too true.

      Great vid, Ben. I love the Tech Report!

    • Ben, please keep the good shit coming. I love your videos. Now I especially feel I am not missing out by not have a Facebook page....and I fail to see the point of Twitter. That shit seems diva-esque self-absorbed.

    • I am so glad I never signed up for facebook. It looks like a colossal waste of time and energy.

      Unlike current, which does not suck donkey dick even a little!

      Thanks for always coming up with hilarious stuff, Ben!

    • I so ranted, on facebook, about how everyone's complaining like, four days ago. People are so afraid of change I just want to smack them. WAKE UP PEOPLE!!! It's not hurting you or your civil liberties to have a little layout change on your facebook page. GET OVER IT.
