Yesterday at its annual f8 conference for developers, Facebook announced major changes to its site. You may have noticed changes to Facebook this week, such as the running stream of posts in the right column, but these changes are only the beginning of the future for Facebook.
The biggest changes announced yesterday included a complete overhaul of user profiles and the use of apps to interact with your friends in real time. The changes are significant and how much you embrace them will depend upon how much you want to share. If you want your life to be an open book, you will absolutely love the new features. If you relish your privacy, you may not be a big fan of what is to come.
Background
Facebook celebrated last week when half a billion users logged on to the site in a single day. That’s half a billion, with a “b”. Facebook now has 800 million registered users, most of whom are active users. Unless Facebook expands its audience to aliens or the animal population, it doesn’t have much room for growth.
Facebook is looking at new ways to grow beyond trying to sign up the human population on Earth. Instead of striving to enlist new members, Facebook’s new stated goal is to increase engagement with the users it already has.
The changes to Facebook are designed to enhance your experience while on Facebook or with other sites that are connected to Facebook. In short, instead of trying to get more people to sign up, Facebook want its current members to spend more time on Facebook.
Here are the major innovations which were presented yesterday:
Timeline – Your Profile Becomes a Digital Scrapbook
Facebook will be changing the format of your profile page so that you will be able to share the story of your life with others. Instead of your profile page merely showing your most recent status updates and a few pictures, it will show pictures you have highlighted as important, apps you have used, articles you have read and maps of your recent locations. Your profile will have a timeline which sorts your stories, posts and photos by year. You can include maps of places you’ve traveled and where you have lived. You can highlight the important events and photos by starring them, ensuring that you feature information that you want people to see.
You can make your profile your personal biography. Upload your pictures from the year you were born and every year after that. Write stories about what happened at each turning point in your life. Upload videos of your first steps (if video was around then), scan your elementary school report cards, prom pictures and high school diploma, if you wish. Facebook becomes your digital scrapbook, onto which you can record your entire life.
You can share all this information with the world or just your friends. You can choose what you share and how broadly you share it.
Tech Tip: Try to avoid uploading embarrassing pictures of yourself and making your profile public. That part hasn’t changed.
Facebook Gestures – You Don’t Have To Like What You’re Doing
Right now, all you can do on Facebook is “Like” something: a book, movie, or a song, for example. But Mark Zuckerberg realizes that you might be doing something other than Liking. You might be Reading a book while Watching a tv show and Listening to music. You may Like none of it. You can now tell Facebook what you’re doing, even if you don’t Like it. You can now (Verb) a (Noun) in your updates.
Open Graph – A New Class of Apps
Facebook has partnered with dozens of companies to make their services more social. The first example given in the presentation was Spotify. You will soon be able to connect your Spotify account to Facebook so that when you listen to a song, it posts to your Facebook page.
This is where the stream in the right column of Facebook comes in handy. The information about what you’re doing with an app appears in the stream. When a friend sees that you are listening to a song on Spotify, she can hover her cursor over that notice. She will then have the option to listen to the song on Spotify along with you. Facebook calls this “Real Time Serendipity.”
App sharing isn’t limited to music. You can share videos with friends on Facebook with sites like Netflix and Hulu+ as well.
You can also share articles you are reading with sites such as Yahoo News, The Daily, The Washington Post and other connected sites. From your Facebook page, you will be able to see the most popular articles and topics shared by your friends.
Apps go beyond media. Do you like to run? You can share your runs automatically on your Facebook page with the Nike+ app. Your friends can see how far you ran, how fast and a map of your run.
Cooking apps will be linked with Facebook so you can share special recipes with your friends or the menu of each meal. Unfortunately, your friends can’t help you eat that meal through Facebook, but perhaps that will be included in a further update.
All of this app sharing won’t be restricted to your computer. You will be able to enjoy the app sharing experience on your smartphone as well.
To reinforce the commitment Facebook has to social media sharing, the CEO’s of Spotify and Netflix appeared on stage to talk about Facebook integration with their services.
Facebook Credentials
Have you ever been annoyed by the pop-up windows on your computer asking you if you authorize a site to connect with Facebook? Well that’s being changed too. You won’t have to authorize an app to post to Facebook each time you access the site. In what was called “frictionless experience,” you can give Facebook blanket permission to post every time you access that app. For example, you can authorize Facebook to post every time you listen to a song on Spotify or read an article on Yahoo News.
After you give authorization, every article you read from that source will be posted in Facebook. So if you want to keep your online reading habits private, don’t give authorization to Facebook Credentials. If you want to share your reading list with the world, then connect your sites with Facebook.
Annual Report – What Do You Have to Show for the Year?
At the end of each calendar year, Facebook will compile an annual report, showing your activities for the year. Your yearbook will include graphics and statistics of how you have used Facebook that year.
Privacy
Zuckerberg emphasized that you can control your sharing features through your privacy settings on Facebook. Once these features are activated, you should check your privacy settings (and those of your kids on Facebook) to make sure that you have the privacy settings you desire. Don’t assume that the default privacy setting will be that sharing is turned off. Stay tuned to The Wonder of Tech for more details as these features are introduced.
Timing
The Timeline feature is available immediately to developers and will be available to those who sign up for the beta (early) version within the next few weeks. No word yet on sign up procedures if you want to be the first to test the new features.
Some of the app sharing features are already available, such as Facebook Credentials. Other apps, such as Spotify, will be available in the near future.
Summary
Many of the changes to Facebook involve different ways of organizing information. The Timeline, Yearbook and stream all present the same information in a different format. The enhanced sharing through apps and Facebook Credentials are innovations you may either savor or detest. But the choice to use them is yours.
If you want to see the f8 presentation from yesterday, click here: f8 Facebook Presentation. I recommend watching at least the beginning for Andy Sandberg’s uncanny and hilarious impression of Mark Zuckerberg. Many who watched were fooled and thought he actually was Zuckerberg.
Can you tell which one is the real billionaire?
Bottom Line
Facebook’s new features involve enhanced sharing, make it easier for you to share information about yourself and to access the information of others. Privacy concerns abound, but if you are excited about sharing your information with others, yesterday’s announcement was a bonanza for you.
My question is, when Facebook has nearly all of the people on the planet spending all of their time on Facebook, where do they grow from there?
Google+, the social media ball is definitely in your court now.
Are you excited about Facebook’s new features? Will you be sharing more with your friends via Facebook? Let us know in the Comments section below!
This was so helpful Carolyn. I’m sure it will take me a while to catch on but I know who to ask for help : )
Hi Joyce, I’m so glad you found this article helpful. You’re absolutely right, I’m here to help if you have any questions. I hope you enjoy the new Facebook.
Have a great weekend, Joyce! 🙂
Very interesting I watched that presentation by Mark Zuckerberg live yesterday. I think Facebook still has room to grow because it’s still not available in China, but I think that might be a matter of a link with Qzone or something. I think Qzone in some ways is better than Facebook.
Did you check out my photographs on Facebook? I only put two on this week but hopefully I’ll take more this weekend. I might have to start going out in the mornings, it seems the light is better then.
Hi Mike, So, were you fooled by Andy Sandberg? 😉
The presentation was very impressive, much more so than the presentation about video calling in July.
Good point about Facebook in China. I’m wondering if China will ever allow Facebook within its borders. That would be a huge growth area for Facebook.
I haven’t been to your site on Facebook recently, though I did check out your tech blog today. 😀
I hope you have a great weekend, Mike
Carolyn,
Thanks for keeping us updated on Facebook!
I have three questions..
1. What are your favorite Facebook updates and why?
2. What updates will have a huge impact on social media – if any? Why?
3. Do you think Facebook credits will become a common online currency? How?
Hi Stan, Wow, what great questions!
1. I am looking forward to seeing the favorite articles that my friends are reading. The music sharing could be fun, but there are so many different formats, sharing will only be effective if there is a winner. It seemed like the anointed winner is Spotify, but that service is still invitation only in the US.
2. Timeline may have the biggest impact on social media. The new format makes information more organized and easily shared. People might be willing to put more information about themselves online if the format is compelling. That, I believe, is the key to social media. Social media is all about people and the more people share, the more social Facebook will become.
3. No, I don’t believe Facebook credits will be a common online currency. I actually like the idea of a new common currency that would work across international borders, but Facebook credits haven’t been widely adopted.
This may change if Facebook invests more in the concept. Facebook could reward people for certain tasks by awarding Facebook credits. Facebook could also require that its partners accept Facebook credits as payment. What if you could get a discount on your Spotify, Netflix, Hulu+ or DirecTv subscriptions by paying for them with Facebook credits? Then the currency would be more valuable.
What are your thoughts on these questions, Stan? Do you like the changes?
Thanks so much, Stan, for visiting, tweeting, and leaving your awesome comment! 🙂
Breaking news, Stan. I need to correct my comment. As of today, Spotify is now open to everyone in the US. No invitation required. First Google+ opens to the public, now Spotify. This has been quite a week!
Thanks, Carolyn, very comprehensive, this will help once I am up to dedicate more time to it.
There is such a lot of new stuff around, and my day still has only 24 hours for the day job, taking care of the family and the dog, having a social life, blogging, studying.
I wonder how do people manage? Time management, a hidden troll, outsourcing?
I need a holiday!
Have a lovely weekend, Barbara
Hi Barbara, You’re right, everyone is very busy with life, but many people seem to find time for Facebook.
Will people have the time or the inclination to put even more information on Facebook? Time will tell.
Maybe Facebook will come up with a time management app!
You absolutely deserve a holiday, Barbara. I hope your weekend is relaxing and restorative. 🙂
You are incredible Carolyn! This is so exciting. I love change. I can feel my brain getting rewired already!
Thanks
Betsy
Hi Betsy, Thanks. I get excited about all of these exciting developments too. There is just never a dull day in the tech world lately!
I don’t think your brain will have to re-wire too much to adapt to these Facebook changes. I imagine they will be very user friendly. Facebook wants you to share so they will make it easy peasy.
Have an awesome weekend, Betsy! 🙂
Hi Carolyn,
Wonderful article. I am pretty sure FB fans love this feature who wish to share as public. I like your bottom line questions!.
In my view, Either FB or Google+ , they would turn in future to below entertainment and games domains at full throttle since the Social Media mass age group they haul in their wallet mostly youngsters and middle age tiers. Domains like Entertainment, Games, Sports, 3D and Technology always fascinating for this segment and could fuel enough.
Besides, Google + entry into Social Media thrust FB to introduce new concepts due to its rapid growth. However, at another decade, entertainment industry will face tremendous changes due to mammoth technical growth.
Let’s sit back, relax and Enjoy 🙂
Again, Thanks for sharing the article Carolyn.
Hi Manickam, You make excellent points.Both Google+ and Facebook want to appeal to the younger generation who love to share. They share their information, photos and tastes with others regularly which is the dream scenario for advertisers. Google and Facebook have made sharing fun and compelling.
It will be exciting to see what the future holds for new technology! You’re absolutely correct, relax and enjoy the ride. Very cool.
I hope your weekend is awesome, Manickam. 🙂
Carolyn, Thanks for the excellent explanation. Fantastic what can be done with social media and FB. Frankly, I’m one of those who has neither the time nor the interest to find out what my friends are cooking, eating, reading, where they are running – or what shoes they are running in – ad+ for Nike, etc. and vice-versa. Some personal, private time is becoming ever more valuable.
However, I’m sure that many of the half billion users, especially younger ones, will love these apps and spend more time following their friends’ activities and posting about their own.
But as you so wisely said, where do they grow from there?
Hi Penelope, I’m so glad you enjoyed the article. Yes, it will be interesting to see if some people overshare and put ever meal, recipe, song, etc. on their Facebook Timeline. Younger users who embrace sharing have many more opportunities to do so with the new Facebook.
The growth opportunities for Facebook are with monetization. How can it profit from having such a large chunk of the world’s population? That’s their challenge. Facebook has a huge market share but isn’t nearly as profitable as other companies, such as Apple. These changes should certainly enhance its profitability. Is there a company that wouldn’t want to partner with Facebook?
Thanks so much for your awesome comment, Penelope! 🙂
I think Facebook’s new features are awesome – esp the timeline. This is gonna be another feature that yet again increases Facebook stickiness and will prevent users leaving once they’ve built up several years worth of info.
Google+ defo has to keep innovating in order to make any real impact. It’ll be a hard task.
Nice, comprehensive coverage
Hi sandip, You’re right, Facebook’s goal of stickiness should be achieved with these changes. After people invest in their Timelines, they will want to continue to add to their Timelines as major life events happen.
Google+ is just getting off the ground so they will probably be enhancing their site as well.
Thank you very much for your kind words, sandip. I hope your weekend is going well!
I knew more changes were coming Carolyn so thanks for much for sharing with us just what is still to come. Yikes! More changes.. Well, we’ll either like them or hate them so only time will tell.
I’m going to watch the f8 presentation from yesterday. I think it will be interesting.
Like on Twitter, I don’t care about seeing what everyone is doing when. Seriously! I think people are just bored so they type that stuff in. I know a lot of that I won’t be liking but know you can change. Thank goodness.
Appreciate your input Carolyn, thanks again.
Adrienne
Hi Adrienne, Great job on your video blog explaining all of the changes to Facebook that happened earlier this week. I highly recommend that anyone wanting to check out these changes watch Adrienne’s amazing video that walks you through the changes step by step.
The presentation was about two hours long. About 100,000 people watched at the peak, then it dropped down to about 80,000 people at the end. The best part was the beginning with Andy Sandberg.
But you will have plenty of information to do your next Facebook video. The changes are coming slowly. People who sign up will be the first to have access to the changes. That will happen over the next few weeks. So it might be a while before everyone has access to all of the new features. It depends upon how smooth the initial rollout is, I imagine.
Have a great weekend, Adrienne!
Hi Carolyn,
I actually like the new changes, and it seems that Facebook are doing a lot of very interesting things and adding some new features that I like. But, the problem is the way they are doing it and how frequent they are changing things. As soon as I find out how things are working the change it… that’s frustrating 🙂
Thanks a lot for sharing this. I didn’t know many of the new updates.
Have a great weekend Carolyn.
Hi Jens, I think tech people can be change junkies. Change happens so much in the tech world that life can seem stagnant if things are the same as yesterday.
I think there are two main reasons for so much change at Facebook. The first is the pressure from having Google+ as a competitor. The second is Facebook’s desire to earn more revenue from the site.
But most of their users aren’t techies, so I’m thinking Facebook needs to slow down after this and not do any major overhauls for a while. At least until people get used to the new features from this overhaul.
I thought you might like the integration with Spotify. Do you think you will use that new feature to discover music from your friends? I thought of you during the presentation, “Jens is going to love this!” But perhaps I was wrong.
Hope you’re having a great weekend, Jens!
I’m actually not sure about the integration with Spotify. It makes me think of one of my friends who have connected his training device to facebook, and every time he’s been doing some sort of exercise, all his friends will see it. It was interesting the first time, but then, I would see his results every single day, and sometimes more than once a day. And I was just so sick of it, I had to hide his updates 🙂
I guess it depends on the feature. Because I listen to a lot of songs every single day, and if all of the songs are going to be published to Facebook, I probably won’t have any friends left during the first week 🙂
Great point, Jens. I hadn’t thought about Spotify connection in that respect. If you listen to hundreds of songs on a cross-country road trip, you don’t want to clog your feed with that information.
I have a hunch that the streaming feed in the right sidebar is where posts from apps will land. Facebook might have realized that people don’t want their Facebook pages clogged with information from apps.
I also like that I will be able go to people’s pages to see their tastes in music, news articles, tv shows and movies are. That would be a great way to discover new content.
Time will tell if these changes are enjoyable or annoying!
I certainly don’t have anything to hide but there are certain things I’m not particularly interested in sharing nor do I thing my friends even really care about.
It does appear there are some very creative things you can do now with these changes, but I think I will just continue to ‘show up’ for awhile before I get too crazy with it.
Adrienne also had a good post about FB; like minds think alike, huh?
This is certainly very detailed and in-depth; thanks for taking the time to put this together and sharing it with your community. Great job!
I hope you have a great weekend.
Hi Bill, I am honored to have a tv star here at The Wonder of Tech! Can I have your autograph?
Yes, Adrienne’s video blog is amazing. She always does a great job at clearly explaining what we need to know.
You don’t have to change how you are interacting with Facebook for now. Most of the changes I discussed in this article haven’t occurred yet and won’t for a while. The changes that happened earlier this week (the ones Adrienne explains in her blog post) only require that you enable subscribing if you want that for your Facebook page. Now that you’re a famous tv star, you may want to consider that.
Congratulations on your awesome speech! I hope you have a great weekend, my friend. 🙂
All I know is I still had to buy my own dinner…………say what?
Thanks for the kind words……….:)
That’s just plain wrong. :-q
Carolyn, aloha. Yikes! These changes make me want to scream. Heck, I only made it through the recent mini-changes because of Adrienne’s terrific tutorial.
Personally, I don’t want everyone to know what I am doing it or when I am doing it. Obviously, I am going to have to watch the presentation and then pay lots of attention to the privacy settings.
While I certainly don’t “Like” what you had to say, I so appreciate the clarity of your explanation. This post definitely will be living on my computer to use as reference as I try to learn this.
Like Bill, I am going to “show up” to monitor what is happening rather than become actively involved with everything.
Though I can appreciate why FB wants to engage there more, I far prefer twitter with its 140 character limitation. What I find is that people say what they have to say and then move on without as much idle chatter.
So, Carolyn, let me ask you this looking at only fb and G+ which do you prefer and why?
So many changes, so little time. Thank heavens I have you, Carolyn. Yet another reason #YouMatter to me. Aloha. Janet
Hi Janet, I think you’ll be fine with the changes. You still only share what you want to, we’ll just have to watch about some privacy default settings with the new apps. I don’t want a blanket approval for the items I read to be posted to my Facebook wall. Just because I read something doesn’t mean I approve of it.
You may really enjoy Timeline. A review I read this morning said Timeline was the best change Facebook has ever made. I’m excited to see what is in store.
Right now I tend to prefer Facebook more because more of my friends are on Facebook. But now that Google+ is public, more people may join it.
Thank you very much for your kind words, Janet. I hope your weekend is great!
Hi Carolyn,
This is the first positive, constructive post I’ve read detailing the new Facebook changes. Well done, agent of change 😉
I like the changes. Especially after reading your post. Opening up is the key to making connections and building trust. Any migration in this direction is fine by me. Out of the comfort zone, and into growth, I say.
Thanks!
Ryan
Hi Ryan, Welcome to The Wonder of Tech. Great point, all growth involves change and stepping out of your comfort zone. Tech is really all about change, so if someone doesn’t like change, they probably won’t embrace tech.
I think the changes have the potential to be great, especially Timeline. But if anyone doesn’t want to use the apps or share more information, they don’t have to.
Thanks for your visit and awesome comment, Ryan! 🙂
Very detailed information and really helpful for many Facebook users.
Hello, Jose, Welcome to The Wonder of Tech! I am very glad you found the article helpful. I hope you enjoy the changes that are coming to Facebook. 🙂
Hi Carolyn,
Wow! Amazing tutorial!
I had been wondering about making the changes to my Facebook and switching over to the Timeline, but wondered if it was the right decision. But your post clears all the clouds :). However, I do wish, hope, and pray that they don’t make more changes, or if they do, they would be good ones!
Thanks for sharing a great post 🙂
Hi Harleena, I’m 100% certain Facebook will make more changes, but probably not for a while. The changes that they announced on Thursday haven’t been implemented yet, so we should wait to see what those changes involve.
I’m sure there is no change Facebook could make that would please everyone, but that doesn’t mean that it will stay the same forever.
I think once people get used to the changes, especially Timeline, they will really like the new Facebook!
Thanks so much, Harleena, for your very kind comment! 🙂
I don’t know why most people hate the new changes and features!! Because I love them all.
I like the way facebook thinks in term of making people share their life details in more specifically.
Thanks for the post!
Hello Faissal, Welcome to The Wonder of Tech! Many people fear change and tech can intimidate people. You’re right, people should give the changes to Facebook a try. They may like the new format and they won’t be required to share any more than they are sharing already.
I’m so glad you like the changes. Thank you for sharing your opinion with us! 🙂
Hey Carolyn,
Indeed, more and more changes are on facebook. I saw many changes.
But there is one new feature that is still less I understand its use, “Timeline”!
I am still very confused using it. If allowed, give a tutorial using the “timeline” of this.
Hi Velli, Welcome to The Wonder of Tech! Timeline is a way of organizing information on your profile page so people can find it more easily. I think once Timeline is introduced, you will find it not only easy to understand but also that you will enjoy the new feature!
Stay tuned to The Wonder of Tech for more information about the new Facebook features after they are introduced.
Hi Carolyn
“My question is, when Facebook has nearly all of the people on the planet spending all of their time on Facebook, where do they grow from there?”
That’s a great question but then enters another player… Google+.
I guess that having reached #1, Facebook has to work hard to stay there.
Just read an article called…
“9 Reasons to Switch from Facebook to Google+”
Mmmmmm – that should keep Facebook on their toes. LOL
Hi Keith, I think you’re right, these changes have been prompted by Google+ entering the social media market. Facebook probably figures it can get more eyeball time by introducing new features and partnering with other companies to offer apps.
The apps also offer the added bonus for Facebook of revenue sharing. Most of the companies mentioned during the presentation were those who offered paid subscriptions. Facebook has said it won’t charge for subscriptions but with these app partners it can profit from others’ subscription fees.
The competition between Google+ and Facebook will probably lead to more exciting innovations.
Thanks for your visit and awesome comment, Keith! 🙂
Hi Carolyn
You can’t beat a bit of competition.
I agree, Keith! The iPhone got better when Android came onto the market. Google+ is great for Facebook to keep it on its toes. Now all we need is for the iPad to have some competition. The Amazon tablet perhaps? 🙂
Facabook did a great job by gettting the first place as a social network. In fact, they were one of the first network to launch and that really helped them. But now after Google+ claiming more and more users Facebook will have to face a hard battle for customers. And to win such a battle and to remain oh the top is much harder than to get to the top.
Hi Andy, Welcome to The Wonder of Tech! Great point, being the first gives you an advantage, but you also have to work to stay on top. While Facebook may be worried about Google+ catching up, it is probably remembering how MySpace was on top once. Being first today is no guarantee that you’ll be first tomorrow.
Thanks so much, Andy, for stopping by and leaving your insightful comment! 🙂
Omigosh! This news makes me both excited and nervous! I think I’ll be wasting tons of time on Facebook again, getting my profile just right. =P I also think that I’m going to be confused about everything that’s going on! Eek!
And I definitely won’t be using Facebook as my digital scrapbook although how crazy that we can document our whole life on it. =P
Thanks so much for this excellent overview, Carolyn! =)
HAHA! Loved Andy’s impression of Mark Zuckerberg too! =)
Hi Samantha, I agree with you, but you know we say we’re not going to use Facebook as our digital scrapbook, but I bet we end up doing that anyway! As we see how our uploaded pictures are organized and shared seamlessly, we will be tempted to load even more pictures, spending even more time on Facebook.
Kind of like saying I won’t have that freshly baked chocolate chip cookie, right? 😉
Hi Carolyn,
An excellent listing of what is knew.
I thin facebook has woken up at the right time to introduce a number of features to counter threats from Google plus. It seems to me that Google has lost interest in Google plus after making a final ditch attempt at asking users to at least look at the toolbar. ( Did you see the arrow thing?).
For facebook however, I think that too much tinkering is not going to be productive. I think they just need to make sure that they have enough stuff to keep the competition away.
But it is just great to know that they are handling things in a right way and remain undisputed leader of social media.
Hi Ashvini, I agree with you, I think Facebook is making these changes in reaction to being challenged by Google+. But I respectfully disagree with you about Google losing interest in Google+. I’m thinking they recently opened the site to the public so they don’t want to make too many changes to it when people are just learning about the site for the first time. The growth of Google+ has been tremendous since it became open to the public so I’m sure they want everything to go smoothly first before they offer innovations.
Once the Facebook changes have been implemented, it will be interesting to see how many people like the new features and how many dislike them.
Thanks for your awesome comment, Ashvini! 🙂
Sorry I’m a little late to this particular blog post, but I was trying to do something this morning on FB that I’ve done many times before, and realize with the changes, I can no longer figure out how to do it. All I want to do is link an article and then comment on it as my status. It used to be so easy, but now I no longer see a link to add an http file. It must exist because other people (who I’m sure are more tech savvy than I) are still doing it. Could you provide a quick primer on how to post an article or website on your status? Thnx!
Hi Kathy, I agree, the changes make updating your status using a link more difficult. To add a link, click on Update Status at the top of your Home page. Type your comment and then paste the URL of the website (the website address at the top of your browser page) right after your comment. Facebook will find the website, add the link and hopefully give you a choice of thumbnail pictures to include (though they don’t always include a picture).
I hope this helps! 🙂
IT WORKED!
Thanks! What would we do without our tech guru???
