Get Rid of App Announcements [Facebook]

11 Aug

I’m a real PITA to my kids. I don’t like games on my mobile phones (apparently Sudoku doesn’t count as a game), or on my PC, and I’m not huge on playing games in Facebook, either.

So while I find all your conversations and activities hugely amusing, I often don’t want to be harrassed by some of the quizzes that you answer (“Which boob-size are you?” is a particularly obnoxious example of this).

If you share my feelings on this, it is rather fortunate that Facebook allows you to block apps that you don’t like – very easily and from the news feed.

Just put your mouse over the news item, and a little ‘Hide’ will pop up on the right hand side. Click the arrow and then select ‘Hide everything from super annoying application’ and you’re done! Genius!

Get rid of those annoying Facebook Apps from your feed!

    Me too – I also want to do one on security settings, as people share waaay too much information on the web.
