Redesigned activity box, notification center give Facebook users in-line controls for privacy, app alerts

Over the past week, Facebook has been rolling out redesigns for the “recent activity” box on Timeline and the notification center at the top of the site. Besides visual changes, the features now include in-line controls for adjusting the privacy level of a recent action and choosing whether an app or group can send notifications.

The new activity box includes larger images and text, as well as an additional app icon. When users hover over their own activity stories, they see the current privacy setting of the action and have the option to change its visibility to “only me.”
