| | Facebook 1.6 homescreen Is there any way to make the notifications page instead of the status page the "home page" for the new facebook 1.6? Am I the only one who finds it annoying to have to switch screens to get to the notifications?? |

I was thinking exactly the same thing yesterday!!!! If there is a way to change it... I'd love to know about it. Especially since the status loading takes forever on the homepage.

I'd like to know this too. Also, are there shortcut keys to get to each of the functions? Before you could press "p" to poke someone, is there such a thing for highlights, notifications, etc?

You can hit N for notifications. They tell you the shortcut if you highlight each button. I wsih the notifications page was the default screen as well

To send a message to a friend, press M.
To send a poke to a friend, press P.
To upload a picture, press U.
In a notification

I get notified of an incoming poke but if I want to poke someone otherwise I have to go the friends list and select poke from there or go to their profile and select poke from there.

But there are a few things they changed with 1.6 that they shouldn't have ... IMO. |

yeah i wish the notifications page was the first thing that opened up when you run the app. oh and i hate the fact that it takes 10 minutes for me to post on anyone's wall since it takes that long to refresh my friends list.

The automatic refreshing of the status' is stupid! I go in and out of Facebook all the time. Sometimes within a few minutes. I don't need it to refresh everytime I open Facebook.
Just slows me down.

This is annoying for me as well. The status page takes a while to load. I hate when I try to send a message to a contact and it begins to refresh my friends list, which takes for ever. I can't figure why it is so much faster to access the same information through your browser, while the Facebook app takes a while. I'm not talking about being just a little slower. It's a lot slower.
