How to make Google+ look like Facebook

Google+ ; Facebook

You managed to snatch up a Google+ invitation and you even coaxed all your friends into joining that new corner of the Internet, but now you're suddenly missing the way Facebook looks. Time to give Google+ a makeover.

TechCrunch reports that you can very easily combine the new hotness of Google+ with the old and busted looks of Facebook by using a custom theme.

All you have to do is download the Stylish browser extension — a little plug-in which lets you tweak the look of a website — for either Firefox or Google's Chrome browser and install the Google+ : Facebook theme. And ta da! Now you can enjoy an odd blend of old and new social networks.
