Social Fixer for Facebook

If you talk to me much about Social Media, I probably will tell you that I really don’t care for Facebook. I find it annoying and still check it multiple times during the day. It becomes a total time waster, and I continue to check it.

I suppose you could say I am addicted to the information it provides. I honestly believe that it is Facebook’s intention for us to only need and use one URL – that being Facebook.com!

If you have a business or a not for profit –don’t put all your pictures and information on Facebook’s use Facebook to point people to YOUR websites. Do everything you can to transport viewers out of Facebook to your respective site. Some not for profits and businesses don’t get this at all.

I use Facebook to get information, much I could live my life without, but it is especially good for business purposes. I use it as an online phone book to find peoples phone and email addresses or to identify who someone is. After all it is called Facebook.

Recently, I became familiar with a tool called Social Fixer for Facebook. “Social Fixer for Facebook” (formerly known as Better Facebook) is a free browser extension that improves the Facebook site by eliminating annoyances and adding lots of great enhancements and functionality. It runs in most browsers and installs in just a minute.

For those of you who do not like the new timeline feature Social Fixer allows you to make some adjustments to it.

I like the Tabbed News Feeds, Advanced Feed Filters. Hiding Posts you have already read, Friend Tracker (un-friend finder) and many more. For a complete list of Social Fixer for Facebook’s features see their features page.

I find that it works best in my preferred browser Google Chrome.

I have found it very easy to use and easily configurable. I liked it so well that I sent the developer Matt Kruse some money via PayPal.

Install it and let me know what you think.
