I am not adverse to the new layout thing, but with tweets filling up the majority of the news feed (like you said), it gets rather annoying :( Jane:

I'd set it up so that I only saw 'stories' about people I was interested in seeing. It worked exactly as it should, whereas the Facebook news feed now is just a list of Twitter updates from people who've mapped their Twitter profiles to their Facebook status updates. In the past, you'd also only see one status story from any one contact at one time. Now, if a friend is a prolific tweeter, all of their Twitter messages will end up on the news feed, which lacks any unique functionality whatsoever.
