Tag your World of Warcraft Guildmates

Last month, fellow refacer Rich sent me this Tag your Guildmates tagging picture for Facebook (and MySpace). It allows World of Warcraft fans to tag their friends as the types of players you encounter in this online RPG.

Wacko Wednesday: Tag your friends in crowds

Wacko Wednesday: Tag your friends in crowds

Are you into Where’s Waldo/Wally? Then this new “tag your friends” series is something for you. Here’s a bunch of different photos of crowds in which you can tag yourself and your friends. Of course, none of you were really there but with most of the heads in the pictures so small and unidentifiable, the joke is obvious.

With Facebook, it’s like every day is a wedding!

With Facebook, it’s like every day is a wedding!

The way to think of this is before the Internet, we wouldn’t see our acquaintances very often: every once in a while, we might show up at a wedding and suddenly have 100 of our closest friends around.

The Kimberlizer: Tattoo 56 stars on your Facebook Profile Picture

The Kimberlizer: Tattoo 56 stars on your Facebook Profile Picture

Have you heard about poor Kimberley Vlaeminck from Belgium? The teenager badly wanted a tattoo of 3 little stars on her face, but fell asleep during the tatoo-session and woke up with no less than 56 stars all over her innocent face (reminds me of “Pretty fly for a white guy” by The Offspring). Kimberley has become an instant Internet hype…

Wacko Wednesday: What’s your wacko facebook.com/username page?

Wacko Wednesday: What’s your wacko facebook.com/username page?

Last Saturday, Facebook enabled custom profile URLs -also known as “vanity urls”- for user profiles (pages with over 1000 fans). Most people will have just chosen the firstname.lastname option as suggested by Facebook, but if you click “More”, you’ll see a field with the text “Enter desired username”.

10 really crappy Facebook ads

What’s up with Facebook ads? It seems like every one and their pet water turtle have recently been given free ad spending money and are unleashing the silliest and dumbest advertisements to your sidebar. Here’s the first batch of ridiculous Facebook ads I’ve collected…

Status Saturday: Facebook Status-Off

Status Saturday: Facebook Status-Off

Are you “That guy with the Funny Status Updates”? Imagine your Facebook friends add another funny status update guy, and you get some competition after all these years of ruling the What’s new feed. That’s when it’s time for… a Facebook Status-Off.

Facebook in Real Life: Throw a sheep

Facebook in Real Life: Throw a sheep

It’s always a funny exercise to translate the typical Facebook lingo into real life situations. That’s because in every day life, we don’t nearly poke and tag people as much, let alone throw sheep at them…

Make Facebook talk like a pirate!

Make Facebook talk like a pirate!

Real pirates don’t say “What’s new feed”, they say “Captain’s log”. They do not “log out” but “abandon ship” and they don’t have “friends” but “hearties”. If you’re a buccaneers on Facebook, then here’s a golden tip! A humorous language option called English (Pirate) turns your inbox into a “Bottle o’ messages” and shows the dates of upcoming “Grog fests” (instead of birthdays).

Wacko Facebook Bunny Ad

Wacko Facebook Bunny Ad

I know we skipped yesterday’s Wacko Wednesday, so here’s a wacko Facebook ad to make up for it. It’s supposed to show someone wearing an Easter bunny costume, but due to unfortunate cropping and positioning it creates a whole different perception
