Get Secured and Better Facebook


Starting with some recent news update…“Facebook held its f8 developers conference on Thursday where it unveiled the new Timeline layout for user pages. The new Timelines replace the familiar concept of Wall and Profile; Facebook won't use those terms going forward. You can opt out of the new layout for now, but Facebook will eventually force you to switch to the new version simply because it will be unable to manage both. Facebook said on Thursday that the rollout of timelines will be very gradual."

Today I would like to introduce you two new things that make your Facebook better.

MyPageKeeper.org:  Researchers from University of California and security experts from StopTheHacker.com have joined forces to provide this as a service. Hackers, malicious individuals and even Facebook friends can unknowingly post malicious content on your wall, like “Click here to find who deleted you”, “Facebook shirts” etc…Visitors to your wall may get infected with viruses, may get scammed by phishing campaigns.

Using MyPageKeeper puts you in charge of what content can be allowed on your wall and news feed. You have the power to protect your friends visiting your profile from getting infected with malware. MyPageKeeper scans and monitors all content posted on your wall and news feed to protect your online persona on Facebook.
Also it’s easy to use and as many on the web it’s completely free. Once you visit the site you just need to allow it read your wall, personal info…that’s it. You are done and secured. Use the Settings tab at the top right corner to change your notification settings.

BetterFacebook.net: Better Facebook developed by Matt Kruse is a free browser extension that improves the Facebook site by adding lots of great enhancements and functionality. It has over 75 individual options which control many features of Facebook! Some of them are:
  • Themes: Lets you customize your Facebook experience by changing the colors, layout, styles, and images used. Tired of the boring blue and white Facebook? Personalize it!
  • Hide Posts You've Already Read: Better Facebook gives you the ability to mark posts as "read" - either individually or everything on the page - and they will be hidden next time you visit! Only new stories will be shown by default.
  • Highlight New Comments: If a post you have marked as "read" has new comments, Better Facebook will automatically detect this, and (optionally) make the post visible again so you can see the new comments. You can even mute the post so new comments don't appear anymore
  • Character Counter In Status Updates: Facebook allows 420 characters in your status updates, but it doesn't tell you that you've gone over the limit until after you try to publish it. Better Facebook adds a character counter to the status update box so you always know how many characters you've typed.
To know more click here. This browser extension runs in most browsers and installs in just a minute. Once if the extension is installed you need to go and login into Facebook, it’s that simple.
