  • anand
  • Facebook is one of the most widely used Social networking site where people share their thoughts, business, activities and meet new and like minded people. Once I was sharing my thoughts and activities on face books in Facebook then I could not stop myself from clicking the application Facebook Lite. I don't know why, I didn't like it. All options seemed to be disappeared and was feeling very uncomfortable.

    However, after some time I found a way to return back to previous Facebook interface which I was used to.

    I would like to share this solution for the people who don't like Facebook lite.

    Steps


    1. Scroll down to the below of the home page of your Facebook home page untill you can see the link "Feedback"
    2. Click that link, then you will be redirected to another page where you will find a feedback box and above that text box you will see the link "just click here"
    3. Then in no time you will be having your old but great FACEBOOK interface..

    If you found this post helpful then please comment and let me know if it worked for you

    Remove Advertising Banner From Orkut

  • anand
  • Orkut is an online community designed to help people connect, build relationships and create engaging communities around common interests. Since its inception in 2004, orkut has seen incredible growth around the world; we often hear users tell us how much orkut has come to mean in their lives

    Now I have a thing to share with you all. Nowadays the members get irked by seeing the advertisement block at the place where they used to see their friend's list. This is quite irritating and leaves a bad impression. I too got irritated and searched to find a way out by hook or by crook. I, ultimately found the way and wanted to share with you all.

    I discovered a add-on in mozilla that removes those ads. Just navigate to the following link to get that add-on

Well, it’s a common roof where the users get a opportunity to share their ideas and views. Strangers become friend and friends become even more closer.

    Its one of the most efficient feature of Orkut. It’s a place where people of similar thoughts meet and share ideas to flourish in their respective area of concern…

    Facebook is a popular, free-access social networking website that is operated and privately owned by Facebook, Inc. Users can join networks organized by city, workplace, school, and region to connect and interact with other people. People can also add friends and send them messages, and update their personal profile to notify friends about themselves.
    Mark Zuckerberg founded Facebook while he was a student at Harvard University. Website membership was initially limited to Harvard students, but was expanded to other colleges in the Ivy League. It later expanded further to include any university student, then high school students, and, finally, to anyone aged 13 and over. The website currently has more than 140 million active users worldwide.

    Facebook has confronted with some disagreement over the past few years. It has been blocked sporadically in several countries including Syria and Iran. It has also been banned at many places of work to increase productivity. Privacy has also been an issue, and it has been compromised several times. It is also facing several lawsuits from a number of Zuckerberg's former classmates, who claim that Facebook had stolen their source code and other intellectual property.

    Mark Zuckerberg founded "The Facebook", originally located at thefacebook.com, on February 4, 2004 while attending Harvard University as a sophomore. The company dropped “The” from its name after purchasing the domain name facebook.com in 2005 for $200,000.

    Membership was initially restricted to students of Harvard College, and within the first month, more than half the undergraduate population at Harvard was registered on the service. In March 2004, Facebook expanded to Stanford, Columbia, and Yale. This expansion continued when it opened to all Ivy League schools and gradually most universities in Canada and the United States. In June 2004, Facebook moved its base of operations to Palo Alto, California. In October 2008, Facebook announced that it was to set up its international headquarters in Dublin, Ireland.

    Facebook launched a high school version in September 2005, which Zuckerberg called the next logical step. At that time, high school networks required an invitation to join.[17] Facebook later expanded membership eligibility to employees of several companies including Apple Inc. and Microsoft. Facebook was then opened to everyone of ages 13 and older with a valid e-mail address on September 26, 2006.
