Hi all..

I'm doing research. The topic is "Applications on Facebook".

What are your views/opinions on the matter?

Do you like/dislike applications?

What do you think of the game applications?

Are there any that you use regularly?

Thanks in advance for your response.

Can't give a damn about the apps.

But...

I hate the invites!
 
If you don't like it, don't use it! But ja, makes the work pc fun.
 
tip to OP, if you're doing serious research then do it properly. your data will be extremely skewed from the answers here.
 
Hi Emm-Jay - i hope this helps. I like the word challenge app on facebook. Its easy to use and the competitive features are great.

The chat feature tab is quite buggy. They should improve that.

The search function for applications should be better. Its not very user-friendly at the moment. They should have more options describing more applications. They should also use dynamic loading of text instead of reloading a page when searching for apps. Its less frustrating.

It's not going to. Read an Q&A session with one of FB employees on reddit I think. Basically chat is at the bottom of the priority list for FB since it doesn't make any money and sort-of works as is.
 
Initially I was amazed by the applications on Facebook, and how easy and sophisticated a web site it was. Then my friends started spamming me, I found all kinds of nasty crap. They're basically just gimmicks.

Now I just avoid them as much as possible.
 
What's facebook?

Just kidding, I'm not on facebook but one interesting thing I've seen, with applications, is the way they trick people.

For instance, the app will start out as something innocent and popular (to trap all the noobs), something like "I LOVE TWILIGHT SAGA APP OF LUSHNESS AND UBER FUN"

Then tons of people will sign up. Once they've hooked enough people it'll change to "XXXX HOT SEXY CHAT XXXX" or something similar.

Never had that problem...... :confused:

I used to play the mafia wars, but got over it, I have some quizzes I've answered on my profile, and some music thing that shows all your favorite artists and songs
