It's only a little thing but is annoying specially as I use this application whenever I have a spare 5 minutes.
I also definitely feel like I'm not seeing as many news stories as I once was, or like I have to hunt for them more. This may be a result of new options for privacy settings? or it may be that I'm not "getting" the new layout yet.
Alternatively, if you use a feed reader (like Google Reader) you can subscribe to your friends status feed and never miss a thing.
I visited this friend's profile and found the same stories at the top of his mini feed. He's in the process of moving house and doesn't have regular internet access at the moment so his FB account has been quiet since he made these comments. It seems that the news feed items are found by looking at what is currently at the top of your friends mini feeds without taking into account the time that each story occurred. That means that stories from your more active friends will appear at the top and quickly make their way to the bottom whereas stores from your less active friends will stick at the top for days or even weeks. That's how it appears to me anyway.
I think I'll start using the feed reader better... thanks! = )
