Make News Feed on Facebook the Default View
Web apps are getting more sophisticated user interfaces, which means sometimes there are hidden gems beyond just clicking on links or filling out text boxes.
I was trying to figure out how to change my default front page on Facebook to show status updates from both my friends and the things I'm a fan of. I figured this would be in Settings some where, but it turns out it's in a much more subtle location. On the left of Facebook there is a sidebar that looks the image to the right.
I finally figured out that you can click More on the bottom and not only do you get more features, but you can re-order this list. What's more important is whatever item you put on the top, will become your default view when you log into Facebook.
So, to solve my problem, I slide the News Feed to the top and now I get all the updates from my friends and pages when I hit the Facebook logo to come home. Neat!
