  1. I love how it lets you listen in to friends chats by WillAffleckUW · · Score: 3, Interesting

    Even if you only "know" both of them thru some passing knowledge, you can see their private chats and messages so long as 1 of the 2 or (for multi person messages, at least 1) of them has not blocked it explicity.

    Oh wait, I meant "dislike".

  2. Amid all the FUD... by duerra · · Score: 3, Interesting

    ... is the really, really slick new timeline features. I'm having a hard time coming up with anything negative to say about the new timeline based layout. For those of you that have enabled it, what are your thoughts? I'm actually very impressed, and I think Facebook just leveled from my perspective.

    US version only. Click on Friends - check subscriptions - enable only those you want enabled. Shows up on Home in the upper right corner.

    Note if one friend has permissions (by default) enabled, you still get to hear both friends even tho one turned it off.
