I’d Rather Die Than Accept Your Fortune Cookie Request, Thanks Though.

Third party Facebook apps are one of the many great features of the site. They are also the worst. There are plenty of great apps that can do useful things like show your latest photos from your Flickr feed, or stories from your Digg feed. There are apps to help you organize your life so that you can be more efficient. If you can think of it, there’s probably an app for it. The problem is there are thousands of useless apps that make your Facebook profile seem a little bit more like Myspace.
I am guilty of having one of these useless apps I must confess, but LOLCats have a special place in my heart. I have no problems with having one or two of these “bad” apps since they are somewhat comical. But when you have the Vampire, Zombie, and WereWolf all installed to your profile for example, it just looks like utter shit. Each of these apps are absolutely useless and only annoy your friends when you request that they join you in destroying their own profiles. When I have to scroll up and down the page 5 times just to find your wall, there’s a problem. In closing, use Facebook apps sparingly and responsibly. If you develop these crap apps, give it a rest. Please. |
