Facebook Finally Controls Wall Spam

The immensely popular social networking site, Facebook has finally started to filter out spam postings on user walls. Even though spam has presented a significant problem for quite some time, it is still quite welcome to have Facebook admins introducing efforts to stamp out the practice. As trojans and worms started cropping up as part of the spam, moderators took notice and got to work on fixing the problem.

Hopefully this will mean an end to walls being covered by ’secret crushes’ and banner ads from companies and help keep Facebook a viable option for social networkers.

    Facebook will be spam free finally. I dont think banner ads will be killed so easily, they will resurface soon …

    By the way I missed you guys at Toronto Bloggers meet, had a soccer game. I did attend the one held on Thursday at Live restaurant with John Chow and Yaro Starak. It was nice meeting with the local bloggers.
