Title: Facebook finally shakes things up with Paper, the front page for your life Post by: HCK on February 04, 2014, 02:00:16 pm Facebook finally shakes things up with Paper, the front page for your life
<article> <section class="page"> <p> Facebook wants to be the newspaper for your life: the place where you go to find out if your friends are getting married or having babies or graduating from college, the place you go to read viral news stories. But the old interface has grown clunky. Facebook needed to break its own mold.

But this isn’t the News Feed of old: Everything looks new and fresh, with full-screen photos and videos. The rest of Paper is tailored to you.
