Facebook "hacks"

[Newbie Comp user]

Hi guys, NCU here!

I just wanted to share with you all about a site I found after reading Safeguy's "privacy" thread on Facebook (click here for the thread).

Before anyone "sues" me for a posting a thread on "hacking" , I'll just let you guys know this isn't really hacking... It's just javascripts that enable/change certain things on a Facebook page (the effects aren't going to affect Facebook's server/database), the effects are flushed off your screen when you refresh and/or move on to another page. There is also a javascript there that allows you to change your tab's name.

Here's the link.

PS. Just to give you guys a heads up, the site shows you all the Facebook smilies for chatting

Changing the name of your tab is very easy. Just go into "View Page Source" or "Page Source" and were it says <title>and </title> whatever is in the middle change that to the tab name that you wish then click. Of my Knowledge you can do this In Opera but im not sure if you can do it in Google Chrome and Firefox and IE is a maybe ill check it out.

Hmm. Not that way Amature Programmer.
That javascript hack will look integrated in the main site but the edited source code method of yours runs from your pc.

You can also edit the javascript

javascript:void(document.title="Facebook | Neo");

to whatever title you want

javascript:void(document.title="This is where your title goes.");

copy and paste that to your bookmarks organiser (for Firefox) then click the "Bookmarks Toolbar" category. Click organise then click new bookmark. Go back to Firefox and you'll see that the javascript you just bookmarked; now if you click it you'll notice that your tab name has changed
