<p>Not sure I can surf with this enabled all the time, given the number of sites using these various services &#8211; but it is certainly interesting to try it out for a while and see how common they are. </p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>Thanks to Dion Almaer using more than six apps on facebook is again possible. </p>
<p>Well, possible is an overstatement &#8211; but I tended to forget the ones which fell below the virtual fold imposed by Facebook showing only six by default. </p>
<p>Dion&#8217;s aptly named <a href="http://almaer.com/blog/greasemonkey-script-to-expand-facebook-leftbar">Greasemonkey script to expand Facebook left bar </a> effectively clicks the &#8220;more&#8221; button under your applications in the leftmost column on Facebook, showing you all of your installed applications. </p>
<p>What gets pushed further down the page, of course, is advertising &#8211; in this case the &#8220;Facebook flyer&#8221; which I for one can do without. </p>
<p>Of course, you have to be running <a href="http://www.mozilla.com/en-US/firefox/">Firefox</a> and have <a href="https://addons.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/addon/748">Greasemonkey</a> installed, but you should have both of those things anyway. </p>
<p>Thanks Dion for a nifty quick hack. </p>
