Hey everyone,

This one’s a wish list, not a to do list, because although I can do something to fulfill my wishes for WordPress and other Open Source stuff, the most I can do for Facebook is send them e-mails and pray. But I wouldn’t want to waste my prayer time on Facebook so I can just send them e-mails. But they’d reply with the same generic message: “maybe we will some day (which means never) but thanks for your e-mail,” so… wish list it is!

1) A simple option in your privacy settings to turn of all new application requests. Why so lazy on something so obvious, Facebook??

2) An option when you’re inviting Friends, to invite them all. I understand most people have different types of friends in their list, but for a power user like myself – I have four of five different accounts with different types of people in each account. And I don’t want to click 100 names. [Update: Here's an awesome FireFox add-on called Check All which can help with that.]

3) The option to change the name of your group, within reason. They have a no exceptions policy on this, and I think that’s unfortunate. Sometimes you start a group, it gets big, and the mission or vision changes, but you don’t want to have to ask all 600 or 6,000 or 60,000 people to move to a new group!

4) Functionality to work with large groups. Usually on Facebook, after your group has more than 1,000 members, a lot of the functions stop working. You can’t message all members, you can’t make officers or admins. It just gets silly.

5) Better Video. Facebook’s video extension has issues. Sometimes videos that are being processed just disappear. Sometimes you can’t tag people. Strangeness!

One thing I am really liking, however, is the Graffiti Wall public gallery. Many of the full time artists are using tablets to draw it, but still some very nice stuff.
