Facebook tells me to clean up my act

Just as I was starting to despair of how cluttered my Facebook page was getting, I've been invited to unclutter my profile page.    So I've moved 7 applications to my 'extended profile', leaving a mere 14 content boxes to be getting on with.

Will I ever look at my extended profile?  Shouldn't think so.  I wonder how many of the thousands of Facebook apps being coded up right now will end up languising in this digital purgatory?

This is my issue with a lot of this frantically trendy activity around apps and widgets: there is only so much screen estate available.  You'll need to put something really very fab together to get a prominent position on someone's Facebook profile - otherwise you'll be sitting in the 'extended profile' with a bunch of zombies and pirates!
