Facebook isn't for everyone, but most of us like the way it keeps us in contact with friends and family — if you can figure out how to work it to your advantage. After the big hullabaloo over the last Facebook revamp, where users claimed that it was confusing and less efficient to use, you'd think that FB would give the facelifts a rest. Never one to rest on its laurels, Facebook is pulling out another revision for the main page of the site, adding a Top News and Recent Activity stream for you to toggle back and forth between, as well as making birthday reminders more prominent.

Other noteworthy reasons for the upgrade include faster page loading speeds, more control over what's important to you, and it puts items that went missing from the last overhaul (like friend acceptances and photo tagging notifications) back into the streams.
