Most Popular Facebook Apps
Some of the best things (and worst things — why would anyone load up 50+ apps on their profile?) about Facebook are the Facebook applications. Facebook users have a wide variety of really cool Facebook applications to enhance their Facebook experience. There are nearly 5,000 Facebook applications, and the top applications have tens of millions of installs and millions of active users. The bad news, alas, is that 87% of the usage goes to only 84 applications! Only 45 applications have more than 100,000 active users. What do you like best?
Here are the top 10 most active Facebook applications:
1. Super Wall – The Super Wall application is an enhancement to Facebook’s original wall feature. Super Wall allows Facebook users to write messages, post photos and post videos on their wall.
2. Funwall – Funwall is very similar to Super Wall, but it allows for tagging photos and embedding YouTube videos.
3. Top Friends – The Top Friends application allows Facebook users to create a widget with up to 32 friends photos. By clicking on a friend’s photo you are taken directly to their profile page.
4. Video – Facebook Video allows you to publish videos to Facebook and send video messages to your friends.
5. SuperPoke – The SuperPoke Facebook application allow users to send enhanced pokes to their friends. Facebook pokes are a way of telling your friends that you are thinking of them.
6. Flixter Movies – Flixter Movies is a cool application that allows you to see what movies your friends’ like and how their taste compares to yours.
7. Are You Interested??? – This application allows you to ask people the question “Are you interested??? Why this is popular I am not sure.
8. iLike – The iLike Facebook application lets you add music and videos to your profile, dedicate songs to your friends, and see what concerts your friends are going to. This is a nice way of finding cool music.
9. X Me – This application allows your friends to do things to you. For example, you can add a button to your profile page to allow your friends to give you a hug.
10. Bumper Sticker – This is a really cool application. With the Bumper Sticker Facebook application you can create a bumper sticker and stick it to a friend’s profile page.
I love looking at my friends Bumper Stickers and Big Photo but iLike is fun to look at too because I can find out my friend’s latest music interests. Where I Have Been is a great guide for new friends and where they have traveled.
I work for an online PR company that is trying to get the word out about the first Facebook application where users can win prizes. Life Changing Box gives Facebook players the opportunity to win some cool prizes like an all expense paid trip to NYC and home theater system through a wacky game of hot potato. Let me know if you want any more details about the game. More information is below.
Cheers!

Life Changing Box
I’m actually a huge fan of the Flickr applications so I can display my latest photos.
Katie – I see that 2 people have won big screen TV’s on the Life Changing Box game. Very cool.
Has anyone played the fun new pets Facebook Application? Gadzooku is Sudoku…with a twist for Pet Lovers. Fun, colorful animals (dogs, cats, fish, birds etc.) are used in place of the traditional numbers (1-9). Easy to play, hard to stop playing. Keeps user stats, a Leader Board and you can challenge a friend.

I’m a big fan of an app called What I Want. Not very popular yet, but great for keeping track of gift ideas for your friends.
