    Awesome list. The only one I see missing that I use frequently is the Twitter application on Facebook. You can update twitter and have it automatically update your Facebook status.

    Another application I like is TweetDeck which can be used to update Twitter and Facebook independently or simultaneously.

    Some of these are useful and some are interesting, but #10 is need credit card to pay advertising. It would be one thing if Facebook’s ads were obtrusive or bandwidth-intensive, but they are neither. Those ads pay for the tremendous resources it takes for Facebook to develop the site and keep it running. If you remove them, you don’t deserve to use Facebook, but you *DO* deserve for someone to block the ads on *YOUR* site or for your customers or clients to somehow screw you over. When it happens, remember how you screwed over others, removing tiny, unobtrusive ads from Facebook while partaking of its bandwidth-heavy and CPU-heavy features.

    Nice and useful. I think the ad remover (Facebook: Cleaner) was a blast. I’ve always felt that the real strength of Facebook lies in its large number of applications and third-party plug-ins. This post is testimony to this fact.

    I just had to install a new hard drive in my laptop as my hard drive was bad. My computer runs fine but when I put in the Facebook address in Firefox and click, I get a page full of ASCII symbols. I have NO IDEA why this is happening. I am searching for help – found this web page (which has some GREAT tips) and thought perhaps someone here might have some idea. . .

    Thanks!

    Nice set of Facebook tricks. May I just add one more:

    How to get Upside Down Statuses on Facebook:

    1) Visit http://apps.facebook.com/upside_down_text/ and add the app
    2) Enter regular text in the top box (as you type the upside down text will appear in the bottom box)
    3) Press “Set as Facebook Status”
    4) When the facebook dialog box comes up, press “Publish”
    5) That’s it! Your friends should now be able to see your Upside Down Status Message.

    Note: If you don’t feel comfortable adding a Facebook app, you could use http://www.UpsideDownText.com/ and copy and paste the upside down text that’s generated into your status.

    Apparently, certain Facebook employees have WAY too much time on their hands: 1) Scroll to the bottom of your Facebook page. 2) On the bottom left corner, click English: US. 3) When the language selection appears, click English: Pirate. 4) watch what happens.—- Look at your page, even the headers. Hilarious.
