Facebook is implementing changes every day to its interface. Like everything else, the leading social network has to keep up with times too to make sure it stays one step ahead of competition. On these lines, Facebook has now introduced upgraded Facebook photos which lets users upload high resolution pictures and at the same time allows you to tag these photos in bulk.
Photos in the past
We all agree that Facebook photos was not exactly the best feature on Facebook. Though it allowed you to share pictures with your friends, it was a time consuming process to upload photos and then tag them individually. All this effort just to show a photo thats has a resolution of only 720-pixels. This had to change and Facebook has done exactly that.

Photos now
So what does the new and improved Facebook photos have to offer? To begin with, You can now upload pictures with 2048-pixel resolution. Once you create a new album and upload all your photos for that album, instead of each picture opening in a new web page, photos and its tags and comments will load on top of a page making it much easier for the user. The new uploader works on Flash-based technology. Facebook, however, clarified that they will not be using facial-recognition but rather will be using a much simpler technology which will identify a person who has been tagged in multiple photos but will not link it to a Facebook profile.

Once uploaded, the photos can now be viewed in a much better and streamlined method. Whats more is that thanks to the higher resolution photos, friends can now take a 5×7 printout at 300DPI.
Features aside, what about security?It is great that Facebook is revamping its features to make it better and more user-friendly for Facebook users. But having said that, most users would prefer a security overhaul as compared to a change in features. With even Friend Requests having security issues, it is about time that Facebook made more changes on this front than on photos or Facebook chat. Do you agree?
