How to Bring Back the Old Facebook
Facebook, How To, Social Media — By Matthew Tommasi on 27 October 2009 9:15 pm
Don’t like Facebook’s new News and Live Feeds look?
Do you wish you could go back to the old look?
Well you can.. sort of.. it is the closest way to what it was.
Firstly login to your Facebook account,
On the left-hand-side click on More so your list is expanded,
Now that your list is expanded you should be able to see three horizontal bars next to each item in your list,
Place your mouse cursor over those 3 horizontal bars.. and drag Status Updates to the top of your list,
Now click on it so that it is now selected (ie turns dark blue),
Done!
You have just gone back to the old look,
.. if you want to go back to how it was.. just drag News Feed to the top of the list (as outlined in the steps above),
Next time you login to Facebook, whatever view is at the top of the list, will be your default view.
Easy.

Those folk at Facebook are a cruel lot.
This method is the next best thing for those that want something similar to the old look and feel.
When you do it like this, however, you won't see links or photos in the feed.
This doesn't mean that you've gone back to “the old look” — unless you mean the REALLY old look. This shows how to default to status updates only.
Kind of a distorted headline…
