How to get the new Facebook profile

Facebook has started to roll out a new design for user profiles. The new layout emphasizes photos, changes the navigation and gives your bio, education & work and interests a more prominent place.

The new profile is opt-in for now, which means you have to activate it yourself. Keep in mind however that you won’t be able to change back to the old layout once you do this. If you don’t see the option to change to the new Facebook design, here is how you unlock it:

  1. Go to http://www.facebook.com/about/profile/
  2. Click on the green button at the top right to activate the new design
  3. Get a quick introduction to the changes by clicking on the “Start Tour” button on your new profile page
