Tired of Facebook Apps?

I stumbled across this script on userscripts.org that claims to do the following:

“This script is for anyone who is sick and tired of having to navigate through all the bullshit and spam that has been filling Facebook lately. The purpose of this script is to remove any mention of a third party app on all of Facebook. This script will greatly change your facebook experience. This script truly unfucks Facebook.”

The name of this script?

Unfuck Facebook and it is available to download on userscripts.org.

In order to use Unfuck Facebook, and the hundreds of other scripts available you must be using the Firefox web browser with the Greasemonkey extension installed.

About Greasemonkey

Greasemonkey is a Firefox extension that allows you to customize the way webpages look and function.

About Firefox

Firefox is a free, open source web browser that is available for a number of operating systems, including Linux, Windows and Mac. Firefox is the second most used web browser, according to Net Applications and fast, secure and extendable via the many plugins that are available.

Summary

I have yet to install Unfuck Facebook as there are a few Facebook apps that I do find useful. (Not that I use Facebook that often.) The idea behind Facebook, as a social network, is great and well implemented. This is only spoilt by the shear number of puerile apps.

If you really do find Facebook Apps annoying perhaps it time you ‘unfuck Facebook’.
