Facebook's New Layout: A Detailed Guide

For all those frustrated with the new facebook layout (and apparently many of you are), here is a great guide provided by a company called The Advanced Guard (www.theadvancedguard.com).  Someone I was following tweeted his frustration with the new layout by comparing it to "moving furniture in a blind person's house".  So appropriate.  Well, this guide does an outstanding job of laying out a map.  Enjoy.
