Facebook 13 Things to Make It Better

Stop Complaining About Facebook And Do These 13 Things To Make It Better

Whether you like it or not, you're probably on Facebook more often than you want to be. A lot of people wish they didn't feel compelled to check it over and over only to see the same boring people post the same boring things.
Thankfully, it doesn't have to be this way.
There are actually a whole lot of tips and tricks to make your Facebook experience a little less painful, both from Facebook itself and from third-party apps. We have 13 of them right here. Go forth and make your Facebook a bit more tolerable.
1. Set boundaries between real friends, family, exes and randos: You can sort everyone into groups
You have different friends from different areas of your life, so why should you have to share the same things with everyone? If you split your friends up into different categories, you can choose which specific groups of friends will see different statuses, links and photos you post.
Facebook automatically creates some groups (called Smart Lists) based on the schools you've attended, jobs you've had and places you've lived. Here's how to put someone in an existing group or create a new one. On a friend's profile, click the "Friends" button. There, you'll see which groups he or she belongs to and you'll have the option to create a new group.

2. Stalk your favorite people
While you're there at the "Friends" button, you can click "Get Notifications." That will give you a notification when a chosen friend posts a new status or photo. Do it with your best friend or with a crush -- they won't know you set a notification for them.
3. Stop friends from sending you those annoying "Candy Crush" requests
Sorry, I'm not going to help you get more lives on "Candy Crush." Fortunately, you can stop those irritating requests from clogging up your page without having to say anything. Just go to this page, and type the offending friend's name into the search bar. And bam, they're ignored forever.

4. Block the people you hate without their knowledge
While we can't get your weird cousin to stop believing conspiracy theories, we can hide his posts from your News Feed. You don't have to unfriend him to remove him from your Facebook life.
To block someone from your feed, go to their profile and click "Friends." Then click "Report/Block." You'll see these options:
facebook work for you
If you don't want this person's posts to show up in your News Feed (I don't mean it, Dino!), you can press "Unfollow." Your friend will never know, and you won't have to deal with his or her irritating posts anymore.
5. Fix your terrible spelling
Did you spell something wrong in a post? Sometimes you don't want to delete a status update (can't lose those precious "Likes"!), in which case you can edit things after you've posted them. Just click the little pencil icon near something you've written (comments, statuses, photo descriptions, etc.) and press "Edit." Be warned, though, your friends will be able to see how you've tweaked a post.
6. Erase your embarrassing past
If you're curious about what parts of your Facebook activity others can see, check out your activity log. From that page, you can change privacy settings and delete old posts. You can also see which photos of yours are public, by clicking "Photos," and then "Shared with: Public."
7. Replace things you hate with things you love
Rather is a Chrome and Firefox extension that lets you replace anything you don't like (links to Upworthy, TV spoilers, wedding photos, food porn, etc.) with something you do like (photos of puppies, your favorite celebrity, etc.). It can also remove offending posts altogether.
8. Never miss a status
By default, your Facebook News Feed is set to show you "Top Stories" first, which can be irritating, since it often means that your feed is filled with the same lame websites and articles your friends are sharing. A lot of people feel like they're missing things that happen in their friends' Facebook lives because of Facebook's algorithm.Facebook looks at the number of comments the item has, how many likes it has, who posted it and what genre of post it is (photo, video, status, etc.) to decide whether or not to include it as a top story.
Fortunately, there's a way to change your feed to reverse-chronological order, like it is on Twitter and Instagram. Either click here to find your "Most Recent" feed or look at the top of your News Feed for a way to toggle between "Top Stories" and "Most Recent."

How to keep your PC secure when Microsoft ends Windows XP support

















The Windows XPocalypse is almost upon us. After a legendary dozen year run, Microsoft will stop providing security patches for Windows XP on April 8, 2014. Without Microsoft’s protection, all those WinXP PCs will have targets painted on their hard drives.
Nearly 30 percent of Internet-connected PCs still run Windows XP, and no, they won't die that day. They'll continue running like normal, but they’ll be rotting inside, becoming increasingly full of security holes. Microsoft itself has dubbed the condition “Zero day forever.”
Look, let’s be honest. You should upgrade from Windows XP right now if at all possible—but not everyone can cut the XP cord so completely. If you can’t upgrade, there are some things you can do to protect yourself. Make no mistake: These tricks are like sticking your finger in a leaking dam. They'll help a bit, but the dam is crumbling and it’s time to get out of the way.

Understand the risks

When Microsoft says it’s ending support for Windows XP, that means it will no longer produce security patches for critical vulnerabilities in the operating system. As time goes on, more and more critical security holes will be found, and attackers will have free reign to exploit them. Large organizations can pay exorbitant fees for continued custom Windows XP support, but those updates will never trickle out to everyday users or small businesses.
windows xp end of support warning
Smart attackers are likely waiting to exploit holes they already know about. They’ll unleash their attacks when Microsoft has moved on. The problems will never be fixed, so they can continue to attack them until the last Windows XP system vanishes from the Internet.
Other software developers will eventually stop supporting Windows XP, just as they no longer support Windows 98, creating even more attack vectors. This won’t happen overnight, but Windows XP will gradually be abandoned by everyone.

Choose your software wisely

If you use Microsoft’s Internet Explorer, it’s time to let go. Internet Explorer 8, the most recent version available for Windows XP, is already several generations old and will no longer receive security patches. Google Chrome will continue supporting Windows XPuntil at least April 2015, while Mozilla Firefox has no announced plans to stop supporting Windows XP. So switch to Chrome or Firefox and you’ll have a secure, modern browser.
chrome and firefox are still supported on windows xp
Google and Mozilla will continue supporting Chrome and Firefox (respectively) on Windows XP beyond the system’s official death. 
Most antivirus solutions will still continue supporting Windows XP. Even Microsoft’s own Microsoft Security Essentials will support Windows XP until July 14, 2015. Antivirus-testing company AV-TEST asked 30 different antivirus companies about their plans for Windows XP support and all of them committed to support Windows XP until at least April 8, 2015. Most committed to supporting it for even longer, into at least 2016.
Be sure you’re using an antivirus program that’s actually receiving updates, though, because that expired copy of Norton isn’t going to help you. An antivirus app isn’t a foolproof solution, and Microsoft warns, “Our research shows that the effectiveness of anti-malware solutions on out-of-support operating systems is limited.” Still, having some type of third-party protection certainly won’t hurt.
