There is something Lumia about it.

That is a really nice design. Much better for photos.

Deffo, there are a few technical things that would need to be cleared, such as swipe-from-sides not quite being ready for showtime yet.
I'm not sure how you could make that responsive and work at the same time, and there _might_ be a bit information-overload..... but if they get in with a top developer, it wouldn't take a team more than a month to create that, even at the current social graph.

I donno if you could tell about the video at the top, 'cus it was so small, but its over here: vimeo.com/56488043#

Also, no advertisment on there, that'd have to be looked into.

It does have a bit of a Windows 8 feel...

Yup, it's all about the design philosphy of things behaving like phsyical objects.
There is so much more to it than that, but an example is if you touch something in a corner, it'll shaddow down a little bit at the bottom and elongate a little, as if it was a plank of wood on water. Or in that case, you push the page to the right and get to see another page thats off-screen.

That, and the whole Tiles/Metro thing here: metroui.org.ua/tiles.php

Strategically, FB have yet to work out how to really monetise 1 billion members. Advertising is passive, they need something much more dynamic.

They've done well enough through it, but I get what you mean.
Changing a potential goal of one of their adverts from a click to an interaction (like/comment) was a good move. The sponsored posts though, not-so, even if most of the time they appear to be from friends.

Did you find the adverts were good value for money?

Should I ask Al if using an ad-blocker means I'm stealing Facebook?

Definatly, without a doubt.
£25 got me about 200 likes which got my content infront of about 60k people. But my objective purely to see how it works, rather than sale anything.

What's your klout?
I used to have a huge one when I was in the driving seat of some top extreme-sport-media-brands, but now it's just lil'ol' me, it's down to 59, which is still good, one more point and I'll be able to score some great offers.
