Apart from built-in functionalities, these are my favorite applications so far:
Information Integration
Blog RSS Feed Reader
This is the nicest RSS reader application in Facebook. Though it doesn’t replace a professional reader, it’s nice to have in your profile since you can check the title quickly and let people see what you’re reading. Integrating this with RSS mashups like Yahoo! Pipes is a good idea.
StumbleUpon
To share cool websites that you Stumble.
del.icio.us
To share cool websites that you saves on del.icio.us.
Gifts
There are countless of gifts applications, but these 2 are very cute and the concept is nice too: to wait 4 days for the gift to grow/hatch.
Growing Gifts
Select a plant (or an object) and send to your friends. It will grow in 4 days.
Hatching Eggs
Select a cute creature (or an object) and send to your friends in the form of an egg. The egg will hatch in 4 days.
Exploration
Birthday Calendar
Although Facebook provides a birthday reminder, this application layouts all your friends’ birthdays so it’s easier for you to plan your celebration and/or presents ahead.
My Personality
The main test is based on the Big-5 traits. It also explains typical horoscope psychology and test you against it. The good thing is that it compares you with your Facebook connections.
My Types
A MBTI test with percentage. It gives you the results of your Facebook friends too.
Testimonials
You can write testimonials for your friends and receive ones from them. Testimonials give you flexibility in assessing than with mere adjectives.
How about you? What are your favorite applications?
