Facebook has had the same basic design for at least a few years now. There have been small changes along the way, but for the most part, the last few years for Facebook have remained pretty standard — news feed, images and link sharing. Some might say if it ain’t broke, don’t fix it, but artist Barton Smith is under the impression that the social network needs an entire facelift, let alone an update.

Smith took it upon himself to redesign Facebook’s UI, imagining a site with a slick UI, compared to the current site built around the minimalist news feed.

Facebook has been going all Big Brother on us, tracking our emotions and plotting it on their Giant Happiness Index of Death, without OUR PERMISSION! I’ll be suing, but more on that later. Interestingly enough, the saddest day of the past few years wasn’t Michael Jackson’s death. No, that was only our second lowest point. We were even worse off on January 22, 2008, the day of Heath Ledger’s death and the subsequent Asian stock market crash, which no doubt happened because of Ledger’s death in the first place.

Our happiest moments are holiday’s such as Thanksgiving, Christmas, Mother’s Day and Father’s Day. Happiness nearly doubled on Election Day with the presidential victory of President Obama, proving once and for all that Facebook is run by a vast liberal conspiracy.

Don’t forget to join us on Facebook and share how miserable you are!

The very Frenchly-named Jean-Baptiste Gouraud designed these ingenious Freedombook Facebook business cards. The cards encourage the recipient to “Confirm” (or “Confirmer” if you want to sound pretentious) Gouraud as a business connection, or perhaps as a life partner, if that’s how you roll.

The card holds hall of the pertinent information, including phone number and e-mail address. Let’s just hope that your perspective business partners aren’t so enthralled by your business card that they forget to actually use it how it was meant to be used.

Queen Oprah is on Twitter and she’s gaining like 34254435 friends a second. Didn’t she get murdered by Tom Cruise or something? Does this count as the first resurrection on Twitter ever? The account was a placeholder, but is now active. Oprah’s world domination is imminent.
