FB Application Notification Filter

I welcome this new FB feature: Hide the application spam only, not all notifications from your friends.

Aggregators That Matters

Back then, I accepted an invitation to join Plaxo since I liked the functionality of Pulse, an application that puts forward the idea of viewing aggregated shared items from my friends.

Several months later - surprise, surprise - Facebook is offering the similar idea by importing all of your publicly shared items into your mini feed.

So far, I still prefer Plaxo's Pulse over Facebook's little hack, since Pulse tracks all of the updates where as Facebook truncates after certain amount of items. Do I need to mention: more sites (Facebook only supports five: flickr, picasa, yelp, del.icio.us and digg as of this writing), rss, filtering and search capability?
