Facebook will launch a new homepage starting next Wednesday. Its centerpiece is the new "stream," which is a real-time updating version of the current feature called the "News Feed."
Before announcing the changes, Mark Zuckerberg talked about how much he admires microblogging service Twitter.
Facebook also said it would make public pages more like user-profiles.
