It's certain to be met with excitement - and, from many, a note of trepidation. Facebook is redesigning the profile pages of its 500 million-plus users to make it more of a reflection of their real lives.
But with the new page emphasising one of the site's most popular features - photos - among other changes, Facebook users will be more and more vigilant about editing their profiles - and watching for privacy issues.
Facebook said in a blog post Sunday the changes are meant to make it easier for users to tell their story - who they are, where they work, their life philosophy and the most important people in their lives.
The changes place a bigger emphasis on visuals, from photos to images of users' interests. A new biography section includes not just who you are and where you live but a set of the most recent photos that your friends have 'tagged' you in.
Previously users had to click on a tab to see the latest photos on a profile. Users can also feature important friends in their profile, while previously only random selection appeared.
