Almost everyone has a Facebook profile these days. An average user has 130 friends in his/her list. However, there are many heavy users who have more than 300 friends in their list. They are often complaining about about how cluttered their newsfeed has become and how they wish they could make their list smaller. People soon created National Unfriend Day and what not!
However, if you are on Twitter, Google+ and you blog often, then people from these networks are bound to drop in at your profile. And you like chatting up with them! But you don't want them to clutter your Facebook feed! What can you do? Well, here are some quick tips on how you can get back your Facebook account!
SubscriptionYou can truly make some good use of this new Facebook feature! You can either subscribe to only important updates (let Facebook decide which ones are important), or you can unsubscribe from their posts altogether.
Facebook will suggest you to unfriend them but then what the heck! They will not be hurt when they visit your profile!
Profile Review
This is very important. Often, users complain of being unnecessarily being tagged in pictures they don't want to (think x-mas wish, party pics, etc.). Turning on this feature will give you a complete control on what goes in to your timeline.
Even status updates with mentions will wait for your review! Just think about the possibilities!
Unfollow post!
Just cancelling the tag won't give you the peace of mind! Unfollowing the post will! Annoying comments of others may flood your notifications! So, why take so much of trouble! Just look for the Follow button just above the description! Hit it!
Close Friends
You may miss out on important status updates from your best pals. There are two ways to keep track of them! However, I will tell you the better route!
Go to your best friend's profile. Look right and see the Friends tab. Click on that and select Close Friends. This will allow notifications to be sent to your whenever that person posts.
Unfriend Finder
OK. Before I start off with this, a friendly suggestion - you'll not like finding out who removed you from their list. Either ways, there is no harm in knowing, right?
So, with Unfriend Finder you can get a separate notifications whenever someone deactivates (and then reactivates) their account and when someone removes you. This will also show you your pending requests to others.
Publish Sync
This is one Chrome app that let's you sync to Twitter, Google+. I have found this app really helpful as all I need to do is simply check the box before posting. So, I can have a full control over what goes on Twitter or vice-versa.
Block Apps
If you don't like being invited from stupid games and other applications, then simply block them whenever you see them on your feed! They will not be able to send any request to your and your friend will never even realize this. Don't worry, you can turn them on later! Just look up in your Privacy Setting!
