Hide Application Updates in Facebook

Facebook has been growing in popularity subsantially lately, and moreso in India. as of late it has started out as a pretty good competitor for Orkut in India, which still by and large is the most popular social network. One of the most popular things to do in Facebook is playing games and using Applications commonly referred as Apps.

Now with this comes the real nuisance, as the apps start growing in popularity, more and more people start using it. And with taht the apps start posting updates to the users wall. Now this can be irritating to most users, who either do not play those games / apps and or are not interested in those updates.

Now here is a very simple way to hide such updates from appearing onto your home page.
Whenever you see such an update, all you haveto do is, hover to the top right of the post, a ‘HIDE’ button would be visible, click on that, Select Hide application(app nme would be displayed there), and you are done.
Please do not select Hide User (user/person’s name) as all the updates from that user would be hidden then.

Here is a snapshot for your referral.
