Sorry, but I don't think "It's 10:06 - this post came in at 7:47" is anywhere near as meaningful to me. I like them to do the time calculation for me.
Well, maybe they should give us a choice.
(But don't you simply recognize if you've read it or not, and stop going back when you see something familiar?)
Well, that would work if Facebook was more consistent about showing the same stuff for the same time period whenever I looked at it.
And anyway, as I said the other day, I don't need it to update constantly; I'd be just as happy if I could say "OK, now show me everything since the last time I asked".
