Facebook Tries Replacing "Most Recent" with a "Ticker" Real-Time Feed Atop the Chat Sidebar

For the past few months, Facebook has been testing several home page redesigns that add a second, real-time news feed to the right of the central Top News feed. In the latest tested design, Facebook has removed the Most Recent tab of the news feed and replaced it with a real-time activity feed that is displayed at the top of the Chat sidebar.

This design may feel more familiar to users since it leaves birthdays, upcoming events, and ads in their traditional place to the left.
