The force of nature known as Clay tagged me for a blogmeme:
What Facebook apps do you have and why?
OK, let’s give it a shot, roughly grouped by “function”, then in descending order from most favorite to least useful:
Sharing:
Posted Items
What a great way to share interesting bits with your FB network! It is simple and flexible (you can edit image, pullquote, and comment). And, as Clay mentioned, a much more social way of sharing than your del.icio.us list. One of the best parts of FB so far.- Twitter
Works well. A little snapshot of my Tweets. Neat. - Video
Very simple to share and watch others’ share videos - and who doesn’t love to share YouTube clips!? - Notes
For the more verbose. I have not used this a lot, but I like it. - Blog Friends
I love the concept that my friends’ blog updates get feed into my newsfeed - but so far only one or two other people have tied in their blogs to this service, and so the utility is close to zero. But I like the idea. - iLike
Useless on its own. So I actually have the iLike plugin on my iTunes, but to get this to work, I have to spend time typing in artists, albums, songs … for what? why? Soon to be deleted. - Flickr
If only it worked. This has had the same 6 photos since the day I installed it 9 months ago. Umm, hello? - Pandora
Not bad, but … meh. Is anyone else using this?
Group Interaction:
- My Questions
A super fun way to interact with your FB network. Silly questions or serious - I always click when asked and usually try to answer. Try me! - Interactive Friends Graph
Just installed this tonight, after being encouraged by Nancy W. Very cool. Not sure that I will ever look at it again, though. - Socialistics
I do not know what this does.
Friendly Fun:
- Scrabulous
OMG I LOVE SCRABBLE! Also, I had pretty much quit playing any kind of game on the chaputer. Now I am back on my game. Suhweeet! - Free Gifts
A fun way to share a warm or funny image/feeling with a friend. - X Me
Neat but so far haven’t used it alot. - Super Wall
See X Me - FunWall
Really, I don’t think I need all these walls. - Zombies
Kill me now.
Socializing:
- Books iRead
I really like this app. A great way to keep track of things I have read, which is something that I’d like to do. Also, as others adopt it, a good way to find good books from the reading lists of others who you are curious about. - Movies
I dunno, I thought the survey was kind of silly. I prefer to spend my movie socializing effort over at Netflix. - Cal Football Fans
Just showing my school colors. - US Politics
Why did I install this?
I’m tagging Anny, Nancy, and Christina … what do you say, ladies?

Thanks for the mention of Blog Friends.
At the moment, the app really only serves users with lots of friends who also have the app… Of course, we want EVERYONE to use the app, so for the last 8 weeks we’ve been working on something really special: “v1.0″ of Blog Friends, which will give you an unparalleled feed discovery/reading experience!
As a stepping stone, we’re currently testing v0.9 which makes some big improvements. As a thank you for posting about us, would you like to join the beta testing team?
