Earlier Facebook has two tabs of most recent stories and top news which is now changed as single tab. The top stories works when you get new stream updates, if you are logging into the Facebook account after a while then you will first get noticed the new updates as top stories. And you can also check the recent stories by just scrolling down your Facebook stream.
Top Stories at a Small Glance
Top stories are seen at the top of your news feed which is marked as blue corner. Top stories are determined from lots of factors such as published stories since your last visit, by comments and likes, relationships to the person who posted the story.
The top stories mainly includes the published stories since your last log in. If you find the post is not a top story then you can navigate to top right corner of the corresponding stream to unmark it from top stories.
Real-time Ticker
In right side of your Facebook stream you will find a new ticker which shows you all the updates of your friends activity which includes the live stories like conversation of your friends who are commenting on photos or chatting on messages and so on.
The ticker also helps you to add friends in real-time by just seeing the overview of friend in real-time to just expand your friends network.
This cannot be hidden in other words currently there is no option to close the ticker but you can control your friends activity by just clicking the right corner arrow button in the friends activity pop-out box.
