Stop doing whatever you're doing, because Facebook is getting a new design today

It’s been about a month since we last teased Facebook and the like, so we’re about due for a post.

Many of you who log into your Facebook accounts today will be greeted with a band new user interface, one that Arrington points out looks a lot like Friendfeed, the social news aggregator created by a couple of ex-Google guys. (Credit crunch, saber-rattling, high gas prices…) Of course, when I logged in I still got the old interface, and that’s after I tried several different proxies, so it’s either a network or account-based transition, but not location-dependent. In other words, no fancy screenshots from me. Frown.

So yeah, just a heads up to the new page design that will annoy you in the coming days.
