Facebook, which has become increasingly cluttered over the past year, is prepping for a major facelift, set to go live next month.

According to Facebook staffers, user profiles will be “cleaner and simpler.”

Mark Slee, the site’s product manager who is overseeing the changes says:

“Change is difficult for our users, even positive changes…But we are pretty confident that we can walk everyone through this so they will be engaged with the changes and enjoy them.”

I won’t lie, I welcome the changes.  As someone who openly has never embraced the social network, and seldom logs in, I have often found myself lost.

In June you can expect new tabs at the top of your profile page that will help people navigate around personal information in an easier fashion.

This isn’t reconstructive surgery, it sounds more like a Botox injection.
