If you’re like me then you’ve probably got way too many apps on your facebook profile and it’s probably not only a bit cluttered and takes forever to scroll to the bottom, but it’s probably also pretty slow to load because of all those apps.

Well apparently Facebook have decided to do something about it..

You may have noticed recently when you logged on you got a new page pop up, giving you the option to move a whole bunch of your apps to your “extended profile”.

facebook extended profile application cleanup

It’s Facebooks new way of helping you tidy up the apps on your profile page, of course it’s also good for them as it will drastically reduce the load on their servers and speed things up.

the bad news is really for those apps that get pushed off your main profile page to your “extended profile” as they are far less likely to be seen and therefore less likely to get added by new users who visit your profile, see the app and add it because they like the look of it.

Is There Life After Myspace And Facebook?

by James M. Crosswell

The success of social networking sites like Blogger, Xanga and YouTube has given birth to a new era in Internet usage. A study by Nielson/NetRatings shows that the top social networking sites experienced a 47% growth in the past year with a whopping 367% growth for MySpace.

Some people are afraid of the potential negative impact these sites may have on our children whereas social scientists and others see it as a beneficial aspect of today’s society. Also applauding the rise of social networking are online marketers who have struck a proverbial goldmine for selling their wares.

The multiple facets of these sites make it possible for the marketer to not only, make enormous returns on the dollars invested, but to actually meet more individuals and companies that they can form a business relationship with. This flexibility is an incredible advantage for like-minded people.

10,000 applications on FaceBook

Apparently there are now over 10,000 applications available for you to play with on your facebook profile!

I think my profile’s clunky and crowded enough already…

I just added another one yesterday though, Sudoku:

I’m a bit of a fan of a quick game of sudoku when I’m in “the smallest room in the house”

I also found an app that will show you the most popular facebook apps, so you can track your favorites and how they rank:

They even have a list of the top100 facebook apps and how many users each has.

Daily Babes on FaceBook

daily babes on facebookThis is one of those “blokes” only apps I guess, and could be considered a bit “bad taste”, but what the heck, they’re pretty girls!

this ap has over 62 thousand people using it, so I’m not the only “male Chauvansit Pig” on facebook. :)

The name pretty much says what it does, you get a new Hi-Res pic of a “babe” every day, you can even “check out their profile”! lol!

There is a privacy setting on this, so you don’t need all your friends knowing you’re a bit of a “purve”…

FaceBook Apps Rock!

I’ve only been on facebook for a few weeks, but I’ve already caught up with a bunch of friends, some who I haven’t been in touch with in over a decade, one even lives on the other side of the damn planet now!

How cool is FaceBook!

It shows how slow I am, I spend all day on the net and FB has to become the 7th most popular (according to Alexa.com) site on the nest before I notice it…

 :???: 

now my firends are starting to complain that I’ve got too many Apps on my profile, but there’s so many cool ones to choose from, it’s just not fair!!!

 :eek: 

I’ve set up this blog to share my favorites with the world, or at least anyone who manages to stumbleupon.com this blog…
