Yes. And FB has made it too easy for my friends to ‘spam’ me as well. I don’t need to know or see every application that every friend has on FB. I have personally checked out some of the applications but I do not let all of my friends know about the latest one.

Dude – it’s horrid. I’m so tired of clicking “ignore” for all the dumb stuff my friends are using to turn their facebook pages into myspace trash. :P … I have one app installed – the Digg one. It’s bad enough they are destroying the “simplified” difference they had over myspace, but at least destroy it in peace and not make me decline helping destroy it over and over again.

Looks like what people said about e-mail. Then the Digital natives (aka FB dwellers) showed us we could handle multi-tasking with a short attention span, and filters, bith social and algorythmic came. Is the tide up and going down on FB? Indeed–but I wouldn’t consider it a big deal, just the good reason to see some drama, and the ripe time to implement filtering features (previews, rating average, etc.).

You don’t have to be a user of an application in order for it to send you a notification or e-mail. see: http://developers.facebook.com/documentation.php?v=1.0&method=notifications.sendRequest

The only app I’ve got installed is the del.icio.us app. So I’m not sure if that last comment is exactly right.

It may be too easy, but only if you have a lot of applications installed in your profile. The causes, music, movies, questions and so on are generated by people’s use of the Facebook Platform apps. Fewer apps = less “friend spam.”

I for have had to go into my email preferences of late and start ticking some things off because it was getting a little obnoxious, too MySpace and LinkedIn volume level-y.
