On Thursday, the social network announced that it has adjust a user’s news feed to be more ‘informative’.  Meaning, that the social network will try and only show what is relevant to a user, so he/she can get the most out of their FaceBook experience.

How does it do this?

Using a combination of ratings from people in its Feed Quality Program — a test group of users who score posts in their news feed –and an individual’s own commenting, liking and reading history, Facebook will decide how informative you’ll find a story.

Do you gravitate towards stories about hedgehogs and the latest news on the election? You could see more articles and posts about these topics from the pages you follow or your friends soon.

These changes should be noticeable immediately.
