How to get around the 500 character limit

If you try to publish a Facebook status update more than 500 characters you will get an error message: status update too long – “The status updates should be less than 500 characters. You have 909 characters entered here. Notes can be much longer. Would you like to edit and update your post as a note? “

How do you circumvent this limit? It’s as smple as publishing a photo! Just upload a photo and the comment will be long enough to contain your post that you wanted to publish!

Also the comment of a photo, unlike a status update, can be changed as often as you want without time limits!

How to discover the secret list of friends you visit the most on Facebook!

How many times have you wanted to find out the people you interact with the most? What are the most spied on people, those that are in your thoughts, without which your Facebook would not be the same again.

Just install a bookmarklet in your browser to discover the secret list of friends you spy on the most on Facebook .(And yes, because the procedure is simple, you can make the profile of a friend or family member if you connect from your computer and find friends that he / she visits more!)

Everything you need to do is drag this link on your bookmarks bar. Click on the link with the left mouse button and hold it, drag it to the bookmarks bar, or under the address bar of your browser.

The bookmark you just created is nothing but a java code which when executed will generate the secret list of friends.

What we now need to do is go on Facebook and click on that bookmark. You will see this pop on your screen when you click on the list (see image):

In the list you will notice several names of friends on Facebook and numbers on the right, those higher up are the ones you spy on most.

The score is created based on the interactions made with that friend, and comments visits, likes, etc. 

NOTE: The trick is tested on Firefox, Safari and Chrome. If it does not work on Chrome tried to create a new bookmark and put the URL code .

If you have the secure connection enabled on Facebook (https) you should disable it, otherwise the trick will not work.

How to find out and get notified when a friend comes on Facebook!

Some time ago we reported applications that allowed users to find out when a friend came online on Facebook. Following Facebook book updates those applications have stopped working and for some time now many have requested a new application be offered that could provide a similar service.

Chat Alert is a new application that notifies you when a friend (or girlfriend/ boyfriend) comes on Facebook, or get an email, SMS or private message when a user switches from offline to online in the chat.

Everything you need to do is is at this address: http://apps.facebook.com/chatalert/, authorize the application and start to configure it. The first step is to choose the friends to monitor by clicking on "Add friends to your alert list." Now you can choose for each user added, such as receiving notifications: an e-mail to your personal mailbox, a message in Facebook inbox or a text message (the latter is a paid service).

In the basic version (free) you can monitor up to 5 friends. The service will monitor the friends you choose and will promptly inform you when they come online.

Create a unique Facebook profile picture

At the top of your Facebook profile, you'll see the five most recent pictures containing a picture of you. You can use this section of your profile to make a more unique and original profile picture by extending the main profile picture into these recent pictures. As can be seen in the picture to the right, this profile takes a larger image and spreads it from the profile picture into the recent pictures across the top.
This can be easily accomplished using the free Pic Scatter online tool. With this tool, you can upload any picture and easily adjust the picture to be shown in the profile section, the top five images, and even the wall.
When using this technique any time you or a friend tags you in a photo it will be posted in the top section of your profile ruining this effect. To keep this effect, hide any new photo by clicking the x that appears when hovering the mouse in the top right-corner of the picture

How To Place Facebook Chat On Firefox Sidebar

Facebook Chat is cool, at least it allows you to send instant messages to online Facebook contacts. However I’m not really a fan of the chat bar being at the bottom of the page, what if I’ve left Facebook but still wants to remain chatting with my Facebook contacts? If you are using Firefox, you can place the Facebook Chat at the sidebar.

Step 1

Look for Bookmarks on the top navigation. Select Organize Bookmarks…

Step 2

Click New Bookmark... tab and enter the following:

• Name: Facebook Chat
• Location: http://www.facebook.com/presence/popout.php
• Check Load this bookmark in sidebar.

• Step 3

  Launch the Firefox sidebar, click Facebook Chat and start chatting with your Facebook contacts within Firefox.
