Facebook Unveiling Real-Time Front Page

Facebook is unveiling a new front page redesign that will give users access to “real-time” information. Real-time updates are to Facebook what Tweets are to Twitter.

“What are doing right now?” greets you when you login.

You can then enter 140 characters in such a fashion that they’ll clearly convey your attitude to anyone on your “friend list.”

I guess Facebook used the “If you can’t beat’em join’em” philosophy to come up with this new feature.
