I *heart* the Graffiti app... and that's it.... everything else is pushing me towards closing my account

Agreed. I've added a bunch because of invites but it's getting ridiculous. I have the causes app, free gifts (always fun), some music and film review one that I'm dumping, emoticons, fortune cookie and video. I'm dumping pretty much all of it. I'll keep causes and free gifts, and possibly video.

I told my boyfriend facebook was becoming myspace and he didn't agree. Okay then-facebook used to be simple and neat and now it's getting out of hand. I'm going to start hurting people who send me more invites, it's really annoying.

One of the things I dislike about MySpace is the number of add-ons, etc., that seem to clutter everyone's pages. So, I'm not wild about people who are going nuts with the Facebook applications.

That said, I've added a couple (Election, favorite drinks), and they're not bad. Some are kind of silly, like the top friends one, but at least they're not too over-the-top visually.

I added Extended Info, but that's it. Some of the apps are useful or interesting like iLike, Flixster (Movies), Calendar, and Top Friends. Then there are a couple like Food Fight, Honesty Box, Grafitti, and Facebook Pets that are just BS and clutter.

I only have free gifts. I hate it when people have an ookabillion number of apps in their profile, that's the reason why I use facebook instead of myspace- I hate tricked out myspace pages. I really don't get why someone would put an honesty box in their profile. If people are going to say things about you anonymously, you know it's not going to end well.

I was excited about the apps at first, but now they are nothing but clutter. The only ones I have (that show on my profile) are the Horoscope and the Uber music player apps. I have the Causes app too, but I set it so it doesn't show on my profile.

I added a few of the dumber ones because I wasn't sure what they were, and now I'm having trouble getting them to go away - namely the facebook pet and honesty box.
