Thanks for the info about de-friending. The only reason I want to do this is that there are a couple of younger folks who got on my friends list and they account for 75% of all the updates I get. One is the daughter of some friends. She is in high school and isn't allowed to text on her phone, so she updates Facebook every day and she is tagged in so many other photo albums I can't believe it! The other guy is a friend of my kids and his updates are two or three times a day and about stuff I don't really care about.

I simply hate people so I don't have to worry about adding or deleting friends.

I'm pretty sure you can just block certain peoples updates. Same thing with applications status updates.

You can just opt to hide their posts, instead of 'unfriending' them...

It's alright, I was whacking mobsters at that time of the morning. I'd been FBing for 2 hours by that point.

Bugs, you can just hide them on your main page. I have a friend that posts 20 pictures a day plus tells everyone what she's doing every hour! I just moved my mouse over the right hand side of one of her posts on my main page and "Hide Kristine" came up and I clicked on it. Problem solved!

That's another thing that bugs me. I don't like for people to tell me something by adding a post to my wall. The should send me a message instead.

I mostly use Facebook with my iPod touch Facebook App. It doesn't have all of the functionality that the full browser page provides. I guess I'll have to call it up on the browser to hide folks.

Thanks for the tips!

the only game I really play is Knighthood, though I've heard alot about The farming one. If anyone plays video games, and you like Farmtown, you'll LOVE Harvest Moon. It's the most addicting game ever, Especially on the older systems.

I was addicted to Yoville but it's been having so many problems lately that I haven't gotten in in a long time. Is Farmtown sorta like Yoville? It might be worth looking in to!

How about having entire conversations in your status update comment space...

Back to the original question- Mafia Wars is the only game I've stuck with. I played Jedi vs. Sith for a bit, but the duels take waaaay too long.

I am officially a Mafia Wars addict.
It was the last thing I did before I went to bed last night, and the first thing I did when I got up.

My husband is having a blast making fun of me because I always give him a hard time about getting 'into' games smile
