- Facebook users don’t like the new design
So far, just over 5% of the nearly 800,000 respondents give it a thumbs up. The rest go the other way.
Users can also leave comments with their thoughts. Recent user comments include “Missing so many features I used to adore”, “Please change it back to the way it was,” and “I hate it and if it doesn’t change I will only check it once in awhile.”….<Sebastien Bardin>

- Twitter begins text ad trial
The micro-blogging service has launched a series of ads promoting its widgets and search functionality. Currently ads promote Twitter Search, a real-time search listing of what people are Tweeting about, and Twitter Widgets as ‘an easy way to show your tweets on another website’.
Currently in-house ads appear as a text box in the top right hand corner of on a user’s profile page. Twitter is expected to roll out the ad format to third-party advertisers.
