Facebook on Wednesday launched several new features, including one that makes it easier for its 500 million members to separate online friendships into groups and another that lets them archive personal information posted on the website.

The new groups feature began rolling out Wednesday and will spread to the company's entire user base "relatively quickly," according to Facebook.

"We're not being hyperbolic when we say (groups) is going to be a fundamental shift in how people use Facebook," company CEO Mark Zuckenberg said during a press conference that was his first public appearance since last Friday's opening of The Social Network, the blockbuster movie tracing Facebook's origins.

As box-office analysts predicted, "The Social Network" opened at No. 1 over the weekend, kicking the movie's awards-season buzz into high gear and setting a slew of new projects at the feet of the film's stars.

Before Kanye West appeared on the October 2 episode of "Saturday Night Live", the outspoken MC tweeted "25 Minutes to dress rehearsal ... Just saw [executive producer] Lorne Michaels ... uuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuum .... Akwaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaard LOL!"

Awkward indeed, especially considering the superstar MC's single "Power" unfavorably name-checks the sketch comedy show with the line "F--- 'SNL' and the whole cast. Tell 'em Yeezy said they can kiss my whole ass." Even though 'Ye seemed a little heated at the "SNL" crew, which took a few jabs at the Taylor Swift 2009 VMA business, that didn't stop 'Ye from not only performing the song but transforming the signature "SNL" stage setup as well.

On Saturday's live broadcast-- hosted by Emmy-winning "Breaking Bad" star Bryan Cranston with guest spots for Morgan Freeman and Ernest Borgnine-- West kicked off his appearance with "Power." Instead of rocking from the show's famed Grand Central Terminal-themed set, 'Ye began the song atop a set of stairs with a completely white backdrop. Pale sheer sheets covered scores of clapping dancers as Yeezy spit the opening bars in a fire-engine red suit, with several gold chains swinging from his neck and a headpiece of gilded laurel resting on his dome. The sheets were pulled off the dancers as the first chorus dropped to reveal women of several hues grooving in white leotards in a live recreation of the "moving painting" visual that accompanies the track.
