“Is” Is Finally Removed From Facebook!

Facebook has just updated their statuses so that “is” can be removed. The word “is” has finally become a throwback. Not much to announce except that it has been removed. It is almost a month since Facebook announced the change. Apparently there were a lot of technical issues that took place according to the developer news feed. Fortunately, Facebook has overcome those issues and the update is now live.
