That creeps me ,because I do like to check profile with innocent curiosity, but I dont want to look like a stalker because IM not..Do you guys think it really works I heard some people says it does ,some says no. What do you think?2, Is,t that sick, that face book can mess up relationships, like the ex thing does not work anymore , because you can always check who your ex looks like now, and you can start up again.. It is just so strange. Like it is a never ending info about your private life and offering yourself again , and again. What do you think? Reply to this Question

And ,yes it,s like I check a page of a friend of a friend, I have no contact with.. Can he see that? Or only my friend can see if I checked on them? Thanks

No, wall interactions don't always count. There is one that tells you who views it more often. I used it once and one of which was a friend who hardly makes wall posts on mine or her own. Maybe it's not completely legit, but if it's based on wall posts, then that's incorrect because there are way more people that post on my wall than that person that got #1. But of course, they were on my friends list, so it really doesn't matter being that anyone outside of that wouldn't show up.

Facebook won't allow applications that actually measures how many times you've looked at someones profile (against privacy laws)
They can however make applications to show who has commented the most on your photos or wall etc since that's public info...

Page views doesn't count. :)
Wall interactions do.

No...they don't. All they do is tell you who of your friends looks at your profile most. I don't think facebook would really allow such a thing anyway because a lot of people would probably quit using it...a lot of people keep tabs on people from the past or even in the present.

 1. In my opinion, curiosity is checking a person's Facebook profile once. Stalking is checking a person's profile several times a day. The point of a profile is for people to check it out.
1a. It may work, it may not. In all likelihood, the software was tested by whatever company or person created it ensuring that it would work.
2. People were breaking up in unpleasant ways long before Facebook was invented. Facebook isn't the cause of relationships breaking up, it's just another tool that people have used to affect their relationships.
2a. If you don't want an ex to have information about you, then it's a simple matter to simply remove them from your friends list. In the past, breaking up with someone meant cutting many ties. In the digital age, removing someone from your Facebook friends list is just an extra tie to cut.

 Facebook does not ruin relationships. Idiotic people divulging all their stuff on line ruin their own situations! Either that or all the other people obsessed with keeping tabs on people and doing themselves over when they can;t handle the info they come across - yet can't seem to keep themselves away from it either.
Weird phenomenon imo.

 That's why they call it a social networking site. It's really a web-site that allows you to spy on other people.I too have seen and heard of the application to which you are referring. I wouldn't worry about that. If one does not want to have their personal lives on display, they shouldn't have created a profile on one of the largest social networking sites.
