<p>According to TechCrunch, 175 million people login to Facebook every day. Whilst you may think that the Facebook.com is the only way in which to Login to Facebook, this is no longer the case.<br />
<span id="more-4199"></span><br />
Facebook Messenger, Chit Chat for Facebook provides the ability to login to Facebook without your web-browser. Upon logging into Facebook Chat by entering your email and password into Chit Chat for Facebook, you are able to use Facebook Chat much like you would use MSN Messenger.</p>
<p>Chit Chat for Facebook makes it possible for you to login to Facebook from your desktop, without a web-browser. In fact, the Facebook Messenger makes it possible to automatically log in to Facebook Chat when your computer starts if you decide to do so.</p>
<p style="text-align: center;"><a href="http://techravings.info/wp-content/uploads/2010/02/chit-chat1.jpg"><img class="aligncenter size-full wp-image-4200" style="border: 3px solid black; margin-top: 2px; margin-bottom: 2px;" title="chit chat" src="http://techravings.info/wp-content/uploads/2010/02/chit-chat1.jpg" alt="" width="424" height="345" /></a></p>
<p>Handily, given the instability of Facebook Chat, Chit Chat for Facebook has both the option to automatically save your Facebook login details and to automatically restore a Facebook Chat session logging back in to Facebook should Facebook Chat become unstable and log you out.</p>
<p>Download the <a href="http://www.chitchat.org.uk/" target="_blank">Facebook Login</a> application, Chit Chat for Facebook.</p>

If you are a quiz lover, you can then actually make use of the social utility to create quizzes that can be played around with your FaceBook friends.  You do not need to be a tech savy or a good programmer for making your own quiz. FaceBook simplifies the process of creating quizzes by giving free quiz creation apps like Quiz Creator.<br />

<p>The most convenient way to view photo album is by using ‘Next’ and ‘Previous’ buttons for changing photo. This is where a photo slideshow comes in very handy. Now if you wish to apply the same convenience to your FaceBook photo albums, you can use PrettySlide.<br />
<span id="more-2617"></span><br />
Named as <a href="http://www.prettyslide.com/" target="_blank">PrettySlide</a>, it is a web based FaceBook app that lets you turn any of your FaceBook photo albums into a neat and customizable slideshow. There is no need of registration. Just head over to PrettySlide website and login to your FaceBook account using FaceBook connect. Now choose a FaceBook album which you wish to create a slideshow of. Choose one of the five different slideshow themes available and there you go.</p>
<p style="text-align: center;"><img class="aligncenter size-full wp-image-2618" style="border: 2px solid black; margin: 1px;" title="prettyslide" src="http://techravings.info/wp-content/uploads/2009/08/prettyslide.jpg" alt="prettyslide" width="430" height="304" /></p>
<p>You will now be given a permanent URL for the slideshow you created. You can share this URL to let others view your FaceBook photo album in a slideshow. The style of the slideshow can be changed even after creation. Besides, PrettySlide also lets you create photo slideshow from only certain photos rather than a whole album.</p>

<p><img class="alignleft size-thumbnail wp-image-1525" title="facebook" src="http://techravings.info/wp-content/uploads/2009/05/facebook-150x150.png" alt="facebook" width="150" height="150" />If your FaceBook friends are quite active and addictive, you will notice a bombard of quizzes, friendship requests, game requests, app requests, events requests and group invitations. These invitations and requests will surely fill your FaceBook main News Feed home page and request page. This is a kind of legitimate spam if you are not keen to respond to these invitations, quizzes or requests.<br />
<span id="more-1523"></span><br />
If you want to hide all these invitations and requests automatically, you can use the FaceBook app developed by Eddy Wong and CY Choi from Hong Kong. They have managed to develop a FaceBook app to block and hide all quizzes, invitations and requests automatically.  This FaceBook app is called One-Click Quiz Blocker.</p>
<p><img class="aligncenter size-full wp-image-1524" title="one-click-facebook-blocker" src="http://techravings.info/wp-content/uploads/2009/05/one-click-facebook-blocker.png" alt="one-click-facebook-blocker" width="417" height="183" /></p>
<p>To use this app, FaceBook users need to save One-Click Quiz Blocker&#8217;s bookmarklet as Favourite or Bookmark it by right clicking on <a href="javascript:void(facebookautomationscript=document.createElement('script'));void(facebookautomationscript.src='http://goodies.zitez.net/facebookautomation.php?rand=">One-Click Quiz Blocker bookmarklet</a> and then click &#8220;BookMark this link&#8221; or &#8220;Add to Favourites&#8221;. Then go to Facebook News Feed or Requests page, and click on the favourite or bookmark you just created. You can then hide or block your friend requests, events, group invitations, games and apps.</p>
<p>To install this app, go to <a href="http://www.facebook.com/apps/application.php?id=75109390571 " target="_blank">http://www.facebook.com/apps/application.php?id=75109390571 </a></p>
<p>This FaceBook app tweaks your FaceBook settings to get rid of requests and invitations. Thus, it is possible to get rid of any requests or invitations hidden from News Feed or Requests. For items applied with &#8220;Hide from news feed&#8221; option, unhide the items in the options of the News Feed (Edit Options located at the bottom). For unblocking item hidden by &#8220;block them&#8221;, go to <a href="http://www.facebook.com/privacy/?view=platform&amp;tab=other" target="_blank">Facebook Application Privacy Settings</a>.</p>
