How to filter your friends Face Book applications

Do you want to keep up with your friends, but not their games? Games like Mafia Wars and Farmville put a LOT of post out there and sometimes you may miss something important like new photos or comments. I’m just as guilty, since I play a LOT of games and probably have been ‘un-friended’ by a few due to that… not any more, at least if they’ll follow the following directions..Select your feed

Step 1 – Make sure your feed is set to Most Recent and that the application you want to block or filter is somewhere in the list.

Hover over corner of feedStep 2 – Hover the mouse over the corner of the feed you want to filter out and you’ll see the ‘Hide’ box appear. Click on it.

Select HideStep 3 – After you select ‘Hide’, Facebook will prompt you to hide the the application.

Step 4 – Just refresh the screen and you should now notice no more ?insert application name?!!! I’ve done this and it works quite well. I still get the invites (not as annoying) and all the other post by the user.. Thanks Facebook!

Look for my next post, I’ll show you what you need to do if you want to restore the feed you just hid!
