Facebook further mimics Google Plus with their photo viewer

Facebook has rolled out some more enhancements to their photo viewer which makes it look and feel a lot more like Google Plus.

Users can finally view the higher resolution images uploaded by their friends and family. The largest size supported now is 2048×2048 which is similar to free photo size limits on Google Plus.

Users also get the ability to watch photos in a full screen mode. This is again similar to what Google Plus has offered for a long time now.

Facebook spoke about the updates:

Now the photo viewer will automatically display photos in the highest resolution possible. On a large display, this can be up to 4 times bigger than before.

Starting today, you can expand the photo viewer to take up your entire computer screen.
