10 Best Facebook apps to add to your profile

As well as getting in some sneaky Facebook gaming action during work, your life from ex-girlfriends to the Sunday roast you ate last week can be chronicled for the world to see.

With the recent arrival of the now mandatory Facebook Timeline, we’ve picked out 10 Facebook apps to remind you that the office time-waster can actually be quite useful.

Files can be transferred between Facebook friends at the click of the button, and everything is easily accessible via the dashboard.

Norton Safe Web

A useful safety tool to keep those minds at ease. Norton Safe Web scans users’ Facebook wall for malicious links and content, warning them before they click on anything nasty.

Running aside, you can also track cycling, swimming, hiking and a whole host of other sports.

Use Facebook without the Data Plan

 Use Facebook without the Data Plan Facebook India has partnered with Fonetwish to bring Facebook on every mobile phone without requiring any apps or even the Internet. You dial the *325# number, then enter your Facebook username and password and you are in. You can then send number based commands to access various features of Facebook, chat with friends who are online, add new people to your friends list, and more. I played with the service for some time and it was a nice experience overall. If there were a Unix-like shell interface for Facebook, it would be much similar. Fonetwish says that this service is currently available for Airtel, Aircel, Idea and Tata Docomo users in India. It may be too much work to read your Facebook news feed stories one by one but this is a good option to quickly update your Facebook status or for chatting with friends who are online. The price is reasonable too – you just have pay a subscription fee of 1.00 per day for unlimited usage.

Access Facebook on any Mobile Without the Internet

Do you have an old mobile phone, like the Nokia 1100, that has no browser and can do little more than make phone calls? Or are you stuck in some remote place where there’s no Internet or no other form of data (EGDE/GPRS/3G) connectivity is available? Not a problem. You can still use your Facebook account in India by dialing *325# (or *fbk#) from your mobile phone – this service requires no data plan or Internet and it will even work on phones of the Stone Age. Here’s a quick tour:

Steps to get facebook for free

Google+ VS Facebook

Google+ VS Facebook

We all have been talking a lot about Google’s new social networking site Google+ from last few days. During last few days of my use, I realized that some of its features are totally new and unique like Circles whereas other features are inspired from Facebook.

When I accessed my Google+ account for the first time, its stream gave me a feeling of Facebook Wall but as I explored it more and more I found few other features which are either same as Facebook or are advanced versions of Facebook.

If you are a regular user of Facebook, you will also feel like home at Google+ but when you go to photos section or Circles you will realize that your home is more advanced now. Here I have collected some points about Google+ vs. Facebook. 

Google+ vs. Facebook

1. Google+ stream vs. Facebook wall

Facebook was the first social networking site to introduce the concept of wall. I think Google has integrated Facebook wall concept into its own social networking site Google+ with the name of Stream. For me it is the same Facebook wall but with other name Stream. I couldn’t find much difference between Facebook wall and Google+ stream.

2. Google+ +1 vs. Facebook Like

+1 is another feature which you will notice when you sign in to your account.  A long time back Facebook introduced the feature to like other users’ status updates, comments, photos and videos on your wall. For me +1 is same as like. While using Facebook you can click on Like button whenever you like your friend’s status updates.  In the same way when you use Google+, you can click on +1 button when you like the updates of your friends.

3. Google+ Circles vs. Facebook Lists

Google+ introduced a totally new concept of Circles. Circles allows the users to manage their friends easily. Users can group their friends in different circles of family, friends, acquaintances or anything that they like. Other users will get notified when you add them to your circles. I really like the drag and drop feature of Circles using which users can add their friends to circles. Facebook doesn’t have any such feature like Circles but you can categorize your friends on Facebook using lists feature. You concrete Facebook lists to group your friends like Google+ Circles. You can also delete friend lists on Facebook at any time.

4. Google+ Hangout vs. Facebook Video Chat

Hangout is the video chat feature added to Google+ and it allows you to group chat with other users. Utmost 10 participants are allowed to group chat at the same time. Hangout doesn’t work on mobile devices yet. Facebook also added the ability to video chat among other users recently. But video chat on Facebook doesn’t support group video chatting. You can just do group text chatting on Facebook but not group video chatting.

Exactly same features in Google+ and Facebook

1. You can mention someone’s name in your status update by using “@” symbol on both these sites. 2. You can share your status update among specific users on Google+ using circles and on Facebook using lists. 3. You can click on Timestamp of a status update to get permalink of it.
