Use your Long Tail Facebook Apps

Tagged with: , , , — John @ 12:35 pm

Thanks to Dion Almaer using more than six apps on facebook is again possible.

Well, possible is an overstatement - but I tended to forget the ones which fell below the virtual fold imposed by Facebook showing only six by default.

Dion’s aptly named Greasemonkey script to expand Facebook left bar effectively clicks the “more” button under your applications in the leftmost column on Facebook, showing you all of your installed applications.

What gets pushed further down the page, of course, is advertising - in this case the “Facebook flyer” which I for one can do without.

Of course, you have to be running Firefox and have Greasemonkey installed, but you should have both of those things anyway.

Thanks Dion for a nifty quick hack.
