Facebook; most of us use it almost every day, doing pretty much the same things over and over again. Updating statuses, checking out friends’ profiles, downloading and uploading pictures and the occasional messaging, group chatting etc.
But, while most of us use Facebook every day, the fact is that most of us also haven’t really tinkered with how all the above things in Facebook can be done a bit differently, more easily, more conveniently and maybe with a little less time and effort.

1.Appear online only to selected friends :

Go to Chat found at the lower right side of the page and then, click on gear icon and click on advanced settings. A window would pop-up, now in the field which says “Turn on chat for all friends, except..” start adding your friends name, for whom you don’t want to appear online. With this, you now appear completely invisible to them



2. Turn off Auto Play of Facebook Videos
Facebook auto plays videos when ever you are checking the timeline. If you wish to disable the auto-play of videos, you can do that by following these steps.
  • Go to Facebook Settings > Videos
  • Turn off the auto play of Facebook videos.

Have you unsuccessfully tried to link one of your Facebook calendar events to your Google Calendar?It is actually a piece of cake! Follow the steps below.Go to Events in Facebook. Choose the upcoming tab and then click on the Options tab. Once there, you can choose the export event option, like shown below.adding facebook calendar entry to google calendar

7. Stump your Friends with a “Blank” comment!

They will surely ask you what you intended to type after seeing your blank comment, like below.This little prank can be a great conversation starter if you think about it!
To leave a blank comment, hold down the Alt key on your keyboard and then type “0173”. Then, release all keys and press enter. You just left a puzzling blank comment!
8. Choose Who Sees You Online on Chat?
By default, when you are online and on chat, your name will have a green circle next to it, indicating that you are online and ready to chat away.
While you might be in the mood to chat with just some people on your FB friend list, chat initiations from certain friends or just acquaintances can rather be more of a nuisance. Once again, just like how you can selectively share your status updates with certain people, you can choose to be shown as online in chat only for some people.Click on the little Settings gear icon on the right hand corner in the small Chat window that you see at the bottom of Facebook.

Once there, enter people that you want to be seen as available to chat with or leave out people who you don’t want to see you as online. Then, save the new settings and enjoy Facebook chat only with people you actually want to chat with!

 10. Retrieve messages from long lost friends   

Not a lot of people know of this but Facebook has an automatic filtering system when it comes to your messages. While messages from your friends get a prominent notifications, messages from people who are not on your contact list and with whom you don’t have any mutual friends will silently go into the “Other” folder, without any notifications.
In all probability, this folder will contain messages like promotions, spam and maybe even the odd creepy messages from stalkers, with the latter being probable if you are a woman. But, once in a while, you will see a message from a dear friend you might have completely lost track of, in this “Other” folder. Doesn’t hurt to check it out once in a while, just for this reason.

 11. Delete Facebook Account for Good!

Facebook is great for billions of people. For some though, it might have just become a nuisance. If you are the type that never uses your Facebook account and never plan to again, it makes sense to completely delete your account and not just let your profile catch dust out there, somewhere in cyberspace.To completely delete your account and go off the Facebook radar, choose one of the following options. Go to Settings > Security > Deactivate your Account. Once there, you will see a bunch of reasons why you want to deactivate your account. Choose one that suits you and then deactivate account. If you own Facebook pages, you will get a warning saying that such pages will be deactivated as well, unless of course you assign some people as adminhow to deactivate facebook account
While deactivating your Facebook account, you can still choose to receive emails if you get tagged, if you get invited to groups etc. Check or uncheck this box based on your preference and then confirm deactivation to get off Facebook for good.
12. Add Reaction Packs
Facebook recently introduced cool new “reactions” that you can use instead of the same old “like” button and thanks to some cool browser extensions, you can give it a twist. The Reaction Packs extension available on Chrome & Firefox lets you replace the usual Facebook reactions to anything you like. From Donald Trump faces to Game of Thrones characters and more. You can even go ahead and add your very own reaction pack.
To use it, install the extension and go to Reaction Packs’ official website and select a pack you like. Then, refresh your Facebook tab and you should see the reaction pack in effect.

13. Disable “Seen” feature or typing indicator for Facebook messages

When you open a message on Facebook, the sender automatically gets notified with a “Seen” message.

Thankfully, there are browser extensions that let you disable the “Seen” feature.All you need to do is install the Unseen extension on Chrome and turn on the option to block the “Seen” feature. Once done, you can easily read messages without people knowing you have read their message. Firefox users can install the Facebook Message Seen Disable extension to disable “Seen” on Facebook.
