Well here are some of my favourite Greasemonkey scripts for Firefox users that totally enhance the Facebook experience. π Ever wondered how cool it might be if you are able to see the highlighted birthdays on your homepage, clean out your Facebook wall with less advertisements, manage your homepage the way you want it to be and many more.
- Cleaner Facebook Wall : Imagine an advertisement free Facebook wall. I usually get irritated by the zillions of advertisements overcrowding my homepage. So I was searching for ways to avoid it and I found this Greasemoneky script which gives you a cleaner Facebook wall. π A better experience all together.
- Auto colorizer: I just wanted to change the way my homepage looks so I installed this Greasemonkey script which adds a color scheme to my Facebook account according to the profile picture you have uploaded. It makes the Facebook experience a bit colourful and nice. π
- Highlight the Birthdays: There are some of my friends who really have problem remembering the birthdays, even if the birthdays are now shown on the homepage of your Facebook account. This Greasemonkey script highlights the birthday reminders on the right hand side of your homepage. Well, a nice way to remember the birthdays, and wish your near and dear ones’. π
- Large images on Facebook: I used to get really irritated when I had to strain my eyes to see a particular image on Facebook. So I Β tweaked a bit and found this Greasemonkey Script that enlarges the photographs and profile photos of the Facebbok users on mouse hover. This is a good technique by which we can see the images in a better way. π
- Enhance the Facebook account: Apart from one click logout, stretched homepage and keyboard shortcuts you can manage the sidebars, their visibility and customize the homepage as and when required. This Greasemonkey script enhances your Facebook experience making you tweak and change as and when required. π
Installing and uninstalling the above user scripts is pretty easy.
