How to clean up your Facebook
I like minimalistic designs that are pure and simple. The layout of Facebook is just like that, but there are however still some annoyances that I wanted to get rid off. First there are those Farmville and Texas HoldEm posts that are just spamming up your News Feed. You can easily get rid of those by the provided remove option. But then there are the Events, Featured, Requests and Get Connected (and others) sections in the right column that you cannot control from the given options. Since I never use them, they are just a waste of space. I tried to remove/hide it with AdBlock Plus and RIP plug-ins (in Firefox ofcourse), but with no success. These plug-ins are usually just enough to hide/block certain parts of websites that you are not interested in. But it seems that Facebook did a little more trouble into protecting these fields from being hidden.
For this problem and many other Facebook fixes I used the Greasemonkey script FFixer in Firefox, which does a pretty good job in adjusting Facebook just as I wanted.
Now the world looks even more beautiful than before. 
FFixer is easily accessible via the Account menu, and provides various options to tweak your Facebook.
