Facebook Layout with Military “Style”

These days, there are over 400 million users on Facebook.  We love staying in touch with the You Served readers through our Facebook page (join us!).

Of course, Facebook and other social networks have always had a bit of a contentious role in assisting real-time, personal communication amongst military and their families and friends.  The military has officially embraced social networks and it’s a good thing – officials from Facebook we’ve spoken to say the military community is one of their most active across the entire network.

Pretty cool.  Another cool thing we came across recently was this tool that allows you to change the look of your Facebook background or ‘layout’.  Like this:

Put together by PageRage, the download lets you use existing Facebook layouts in the ‘Military’ category.  There are already existing ones for the Army, USMC, the Navy and “Support the Troops” (shown).

Just be careful if you do a custom one – the days of the gaudy MySpace pages are behind us, and we want to keep it that way.  Happy Mother’s Day!
