Facebook CEO Mark Zuckerberg said at the F8 technology conference Thursday
that the changes will help build "a completely new class of social apps"

"[b]All those activities people perform with these apps
--listening to a Bjork tune, reading about same-sex marriage laws,
cooking Arroz con Pollo, running four miles, donating to Amnesty International--[/B
will be stored permanently and made accessible (if the user allows it)
on a greatly enhanced profile page that will essentially become a remote-control autobiography,"
wrote Wired's Steven Levy on the new updates.
