It would be very helpful if the center column/right column boundary could be dragged by hand, or at least had a wider layout option. You could dynamically resize it. The newsfeed column length could also be dynamically resized. This would allow the user to maximize the information visible in the newsfeed if wanted--i.e. making it the focus of the browser page if need be. Also, the popups which appear while rolling over the newsfeed could be maximized to stretch to the left side of the browser when they open, so the user could maximize the information visible in those as well. Those three changes could, in my opinion, make the new facebook UI newsfeed features more bearable. Thank you for your diligence and hard work on this public service you are performing.
