Facebook Friends’ Lists
Recently I realized that I was losing track of what my closest friends on Facebook are up to and that it was time to make a list of just the friends I’m closest to so I don’t miss them in the information overload which is the news feed. One could create a list of friends, fellow activists or people who post interesting things. Here’s how I did it step by step.
10.7.17 – the Steps have changed since I first wrote this in 2010. See the following image and follow along:
- Under Explore on the Left Side – Click on Friends Lists
- Click on Create List
- Give Your List a Name and Pick a Member or Two
- Adjust at will – I’ll put the various images below in a little box for your you should see these in a clockwise order starting from the top left.

Enjoy your new view of your friends. You’ll probably learn quickly that this new list doesn’t change as quickly as all of the information on the news feed, but the information seems rich in a way that the news feeds don’t. IMHO.
I have lots to say about Facebook, Btw. Here’s another article On Friend-culling! Enjoy!
Thank You! Telepathy! Just last night I realized I don’t ‘see’ many of my close friends on my News Feed! I appreciate you taking the time to share this.
thank you for your helpful tips on facebook!

It’s curious how Facebook buried some of their most powerful tools and I guess it’s because they expect to manage universities and drive more income. You’re a very clear and interesting writer and I’d like to meet you and see if you are interested in anything I’m working on. I wonder what you’re working on. You can find me everywhere and at least 50 of the names are mine. I’ll leave what I hope will be the easiest one.
