"If you are getting fed up of all the vampires, booze mail and super wall posts, then help could be on the way. The social network site Facebook is getting ready for the first major makeover in its short history.

Designers are planning some widespread changes to the way the core profile page is organised, aimed at making it "simpler, cleaner and more relevant".

The site is consulting its users on the changes ahead of a gradual roll out starting next month. Facebook is currently based around a single main page showing a news feed, friends and applications. But critics say a big increase in the number of free gifts, games and quizzes has left the site looking cluttered and confusing.

Facebook's answer is to split the main profile into five separate pages, all accessed by clicking on tabs at the top of the screen. "
