5 best Facebook apps (These apps help you make your networking experience less cumbersome and more fun!)

SCRABBLE
If you want your kids to learn as they network, or
sharpen your own word skills, Scrabble is the game
for you. Originally created as Scrabulous, the app
was pulled off due to a copyright infringement
case and the app later surfaced as Lexulous, which
was also pulled off . As a result of the impending
copyright issues two versions of the game exist; the
SCRABBLE Worldwide (excluding U.S. and Canada)
and the Scrabble Beta by EA (for players from U.S. and
Canada). Play on and beat your friends in this witty
game of words.

BLOOM

you have tried uploading multiple pictures on
Facebook with a poor bandwidth, then you know how
frustrating it can be to upload fi ve pictures at a time.

that enables you to upload your photos and videos
with ease from your desktop to Facebook. You can
even download saved albums and view your friends’
photos without too much of a hassle. The versions are
upgraded periodically to stay in sync with Facebook’s
privacy policies, so that you are not inconvenienced.

TWITTER INTEGRATION
If you have been using Facebook and Twitter in tandem for promoting your
business or venture extensively, or are a social media manager, and need to
ensure that a status on one medium simultaneously updates on the other
as well, you can use the Twitter integration app on Facebook. However, if
you have a diff erent set of friends on both platforms, or need only certain
relevant tweets to appear as your Facebook status message, you can opt for
the selective tweets app. Only tweets suffi xed with a #fb hash-tag will be
displayed on your Facebook profi le. You can customise the app to in a way that
it picks the #fb hash-tag anywhere in your tweets. You can also specify custom
words for the app to recognize as tweets for Facebook.

start with. And if you have enjoyed a lot of fun family
times with the game, and the family now lies scattered

play the game all over again. Using the UNO app, you

one can cheat!
