According to Washington Post report Facebook is polling users on the the new site layout . So far, 94% 800,000 respondents give it a thumbs down with only 5% agreed on Facebook move.</p>
<p>Users can also leave comments with their thoughts. Recent user comments include &#8220;Missing so many features I used to adore. I am saddened,&#8221; &#8220;Please change it back to the way it was,&#8221; and &#8220;I hate it and if it doesn&#8217;t change I will only check it once in awhile.&#8221; Ah, the fickle user.<br />

Washington Post also added, &#8220;These Facebook polls are awesome in general, though, and we can&#8217;t figure out why they won&#8217;t let everyone use them. Earlier this year Facebook stopped letting advertisers and users create their own polls, although they used them extensively at the Davos World Economic Forum&#8221;.<br />

<p>Once again Facebook has redesigned its look and so many users are already started make complains. Some members have even formed protest groups to pressure Facebook to reconsider the move. Also so many angry status messages and even a protest day has been planned. One group called &#8220;One million against the new Facebook look,&#8221; had 254,512 members at this afternoon.<br />

The last time Facebook went through a redesign, a few months back, thousands of people took an instant dislike to it. This time, however, I wonder whether the people at Facebook will be able to get off so lightly. I like to think that I know a fair amount about user experience after my years of web and application design, and I feel that they may have lost the plot a little bit on this one.</p>
<p>The big difference between the last change and this one is that last time round it was more of a re-arrangement of existing features than a more substantial change of direction. Whereas the Facebook-using public already knew what all the features were, and were quickly able to relocate those that they used, this latest update has left many, including myself, scratching our heads in confusion.</p>
<p>Christine Ledo, a veterinary technician in Oakland, said she&#8217;s upset that Facebook changed how it handles what she called &#8220;passive information.&#8221; Previously, she could see in her feed when a friend connected with someone else or joined a group. It tipped her off to people she might also want to friend or groups she might want to join. Now, she complains, the information appears in a different place or not at all.</p>
<p>Ledo said she&#8217;s giving Facebook a month to fix the problem. Every day the company doesn&#8217;t, she said, she sends it a message. If Facebook doesn&#8217;t respond after a month, Ledo said, &#8220;I am deleting my account.&#8221;<br />

Facebook has taken the unusual step of sending its users email asking them to click on a link so they can restore site configuration settings that were recently lost. </p>
<p>The Email is something like that:<br />
&#8220;Unfortunately, the settings that control which email notifications get sent to you were lost,&#8221; the email says. &#8220;We&#8217;re sorry for the inconvenience. To reset your email notification settings, go to http://www.facebook.com/editaccount.php?notifications.&#8221;<br />

The wording sounds like so many phishing emails we&#8217;ve all received over the years. Except it&#8217;s not, and that&#8217;s unfortunate because it threatens to desensitize newbies to the ever-present dangers of phishing attacks.</p>
<p>The move, because it flies in the face of everything security experts advise against, took some Facebook users by surprise. &#8220;I&#8217;m amazed to see a large organization like that sending something that looks so obviously evil,&#8221; wrote Reg reader Kevin Lentin, who first brought our attention to the emails. &#8220;It would have been better to send an email saying &#8216;please go to our website and login.&#8217;&#8221;</p>
<p>That&#8217;s because Facebook is one bigger targets of phishers. With all the spammers eager to trick users into clicking on dodgy links, you&#8217;d think Facebook&#8217;s security team would bend over backwards to educate their users to steer clear of them in emails, no matter where they appear to come from.<br />
