Facebook Photos Get Another Size Boost

321459_10150368494991729_20531316728_9698504_653188_nThe web's most popular photo sharing site is getting another update.In a blog post this evening, Facebook "which is by far the biggest photo site on the web"has announced that it's launching a new photo viewer that presents images that are 960 pixels wide, as opposed to the 720 pixels they've been since March 2010 (they were 620 pixels before that). The viewer itself is also getting an update that replaces the current black lightbox with an opaque white, which it says puts more of the focus on the photo itself.Facebook also says that photos now load twice as fast, though it doesn't get into how it's serving the content so much faster.
