Here is a video I just made on the recent Facebook change to the Notes Tab
Thanks for taking the time to watch the video. Please leave a comment on your thoughts of the video and the change of the Facebook Notes. Do you use the Notes Tab? Will you be using the Notes section more or less or at all after the change Facebook has put it through?

Hello Steve,
I noticed after my first few posts in my Notes section of FB, that the font was really small, at least for my taste. I looked into changing it, but the code they said to place in the note did not work out for me. Now I have received a message from FB stating that you can use Control + to increase the font, but that was not enough instruction for me and I have not tried it out, which I should do. Do I just highlight the Note contents after it is written and then use this technique to increase font size?
Thank You,
Jeff
Hello Jeff,
The response they gave you will only zoom in your monitor, not increase the font size for your viewers.
You need to sandwich the text you want larger between a and a closing tag. Just do not have the spaces in there.
I’ll be making and posting a video later today on this very topic as well as how to add a video to your Notes page.

Hi Steve. Thanks for the great video. I have had a problem with facebook notes for a while now. My notes are only visible from my profile, and whenever any of my friends click the notes tab on my profile, the browser is re-directed to their home page. Do you have any idea how I should deal with that? I have looked everywhere in forums and Facebook help without answer. If you can give me a suggestion to solve this problem, I’ll be very grateful. Thanks in advance.
Hello thank you for your kind words
Please send me the link to your page & I’ll have a look.
It may be the permissions you have set for your notes & other posts, but I’ll know more if I can have a look-see.
Talk to you soon.

I have the same problem as outlined in this query on your web page. Did you ever find the solution? My Notes are set to “everyone” both in the tab setting, and each individual note, yet they are only visible to me. If a friend, or anyone, clicks on my Notes tab they are automatically redirected to their own home page. The Notes box on the left margin of my Wall is only visible to me, and not even visible to others (including friends) who view my page. Again, the settings have been triple-checked and are set to everyone. Here is the previous query on your page I was referring to:

Hello Martin,
Thank you for the comment / question.
I looked at your page and could only confirm the problem you mentioned. I did however, do some digging around. Since my Notes Tab was working when someone other than myself clicked on it, I made a short video for you showing what I think you might want to look at to see if it will fix your problem.

Let me know if this fixes it.

hi Steve, i’m also having the same problem as Martin. I checked his home and i can’t click into his notes tab, so apparently his problem is not solved yet. Do you have any more ideas on this? Also, the video link in your comment seems to be broken.
