    When Applications Push Too Hard


    Tap with running water, originally uploaded by leunix.

    I liked the Likeness app in Facebook, but now it's sending too many feeds. It tells me that a friend of mine is like one of their friends but I don't care.

    And it tells me every day.

    And keeps telling me.

    So I wrote to them;

    "I'm getting too many feed entries for Likeness for info about friends of friends that I don't care about.

    If it doesn't change quickly, or if you don't give me the option to dial it down, I'm going to remove the whole application.

    Cheers,"

    See what happens, but I'm sure that they won't respond and won't change the app from one person.......

    But what if they start getting lots of applications removals. I guess they have a fair bit of control over the volume and can really track how long users stay for, when they leave, what happened before they leave.

    Actually, that's an interesting point. You don't get a "Hey, why are you ditching us?" pop up from any Facebook apps.

    RockYou, if you're listening, email me!
    :)

    They have 1 week before I remove the app.

    Or maybe an hour?

    yeah I find that app really annoying as well!  I am considering removing it because I honestly don't care about it any more,
