LMAO!! I really don’t know many tricks mentioned here!!
But i feel that you missed few tricks!! I like the apps, speedbit & downfacebook.
Thanks for the share dude!!
Both Speedbit and Downfacebook works to get the facebook videos. I think the codec is required for facebook videos once downloaded, and they don't really play offline.

1. "Flickr2Facebook" is an unofficial tool that allows to download photos from Flickr to the social network Facebook.
2. “Who did you deleted” It tells you when one of your “friends” no longer appears in your list of friends. If you click on his name and it redirects you to the page with the classic button “Add Friend” it is because the person has deleted you .
3. A new feature on Facebook allows you to choose which friends will always appear on your profile.To do this click the little pencil next to your list of friends on your profile and select the friends you always want to see. Easy!

@Narendran: ya, i have not included some tricks because these were the main tricks to be known by the facebook users than the other tricks . so, its not correct to say that i have missed some.
@ Ram :
Dude, there are some many people still don’t know the basic tricks or simple Facebook tricks. Let me tell you, you are posting something for a blog like HBB, HBB got huge visitors & also with PR 4, so you should have tried your best to full fill the need of HBB visitors.
Being a regular reader of HBB, I felt this, sorry if something had went wrong in your mind..
yup, If i post all the Facebook tricks some tricks looks simple ,the visitors for a Blog like HBB with PR4 think that “these were simple tricks which most of the visitors already know ,why is he posting this as an article”.It spoils HBB’s status.But some people don’t know these simple tricks they can easily get it from other simple Blogs or knowing from their friends. These were the most essential tricks to be known for the user’s of facebook i think.
I agree with you mate!!
even then, not only pro visits HBB, even an ordinary man, i mean lay man may visit HBB for some info, from his point of view everything will be new, not matters whether it is simple or complex tricks.
BTW nice article
