If you were in a dilemma on whether to shift completely on to Flickr for photo sharing needs, then Facebook gives you one more reason to keep sticking to it. Facebook is going to increase the maximum size limit for uploading photos from 720 pixels to 2048 pixels (approximately 8 times more) starting today and will be functional for every Facebook user in coming weeks.

The photo viewer is also going to have a revamped lightbox interface in which has dark background with images popping-up in the forefront. This comes as welcome addition for people who always wanted to showcase their photography skills on Facebook, but somehow due to compression of images couldn’t display what was apparent.

You’ll be updated on this new addition in your Facebook account anytime stating today carrying up to a week or more, so keep a check on exploring it.

Has your wall ever gotten hijacked by notifications such as "Blah started the quiz: Dr. Phil's Personality Test" then "Blah completed the quiz: Dr. Phil's Personality Test with the result The Vain, Self-Centered Leader" followed by a big story stating the same thing. Get rid of the duplicates by clicking on the Remove button that appears to its right when you hover on it! I've seen so many walls overrun by these useless notifications. I also remove the notifications that appear on my wall when I change some information on my profile. I like things neat and organized.

Customizing Info Privacy

Customizing Info Privacy

When I first started out on Facebook, I had decided to add to my friends list only people that I knew personally, so I filled out all the details in my Info tab. Then I started getting friend requests from online acquaintances or even strangers and I realized I couldn't display certain contact information to these people. As I was about to delete the info, I realized that you can customize privacy settings for each individual item in your Contact Information. Here's how:


1.Click the Info tab on your profile.
2.Hover your mouse over the Contact Information portion.
3.Click on the Edit button that appears on its upper right corner.


4.Click on the padlock icon next to each item and select Customize.
5.Select Some Friends and choose only the friends or networks that you want to allow. You can even put exceptions.

Another way to do this is to hover your mouse over Settings (beside Logout), then click on Privacy Settings. There you can control your privacy settings for your Profile, Search, News Feed and Wall, and Applications.
