Facebook users were hit with a major update on Wednesday. The News Feed that displays other users' status updates has been altered to a real-time news ticker. It is now tailored to how often a user visits the site. Updates are now ranked by factors that allow users to mark certain posts as top stories instead of simply displaying the most recent news. The updated news feed will list stories based on how recently a user has visited. If a user has not logged on for some time, the top stories will include highlights of older stories.
