I don't use those cumbersome applications. Hell, I barely use facebook anyway. Check it once, maybe twice a day for a few minutes to see what people are up to.
 
my facebook is set to default, aside from my digg.com app.

i can't stand all the stupid applications people add to their profiles.
 
One day you'll see a bunch of your friends adding applications. But on that same day other friends are removing applications.

I like the old facebook. The one with the guy's face. Pretty soon it's gonna be MyFaceSpace.
 
I guess facebook is set to become like MySpace with all these viruses and shit.
