(Before It's News)

Looks like Facebook is doing their due diligence to deliver as much information to users as possible so they don’t exit the app. Facebook has announced an update that is starting to roll out that delivers a personalized notifications tab. According to Facebook the new tab is based on users feed back that want more than what Grandma had to say about your last tattoo. Take a quick look at the video of it in action to see what to expect.

The expanded notifications tab will bring in a number of things that might remind you of Google Now a bit. On the friends side of things you can expect milestones like birthdays and life events. You will see TV show reminders and Sports Scores based on the Pages you have Liked and upcoming events you have joined. There will be other optional things you can have the tab show such as weather updates, movies playing nearby, places to eat close to you and things happening around you.

Certainly Facebook addicts will welcome this addition to their notifications panel, while haters will scream GOOGLE NOW COPY CAT! Change is a good thing and the right people will appreciate it. Be on the lookout for the update in the Play Store any day now.
