UI Design
They do really innovative things with data. The news feed is a really unique idea and good UI design. I'm thinking about copying it for [Tecker]. For example, when you tag yourself in a photo, it appears on your profile, even though you didn't take the picture. Also, the new network page has some incite into what's going on in your school. The social timeline is a great use of the "how I know you" data. The privacy options are very detailed and extensive. Facebook is a good example of UI design.
Apps
I kinda like the new app feature of Facebook. But it makes it a lot more like MySpace, which angers a bunch of people. They should offer more preferences to hide apps from people's profiles and the feed.
I wrote an app for Facebook called GridView, which puts all of your friends profile pictures on your profile. Add it here
Pure Names
Also there is like no gaming on Facebook, meaning duplicate accounts or posers. Everyone only has one account and it's under their name, not "magicgirl758" Who in all world is that?
Bad Parts
They limit photo albums to 60 pictures. However, you can have as many photo albums as you want. So you start having albums like, "Trip 1" "Trip 2" .. "Trip 30" I even saw once. What's stopping them at 60 pictures?
Also they need better controls for hiding applications.
MySpace
It is much better then MySpace, which is just like Geocities 2.0.
