Want to find out who defriended you on Facebook? Yep. There’s an app for that.Facebook made headlines and heads turn this week with yet another design overhaul . The biggest change this go-around is the introduction of the Timeline, which shows any and all activity of a user in chronological order. That exposes an unusual bit of information: Users will be able to see who has removed them from their friend list, according to technology blog Buzz Feed.“Sounds like a troublemaker,” wrote one commentor on the FoxNews.com SciTech Facebook Page. The new design doesn’t go live until September 29th, but people have figured out a simple means for enabling the beta version.
In addition to showing users a timeline of their activity on the site throughout the years, it turns out that Facebook’s new profile provides a rundown of which friends they’ve lost.
Here’s how you can see which friends you’ve lost:
- 1. Enable the new Facebook Timeline .
- 2. Pick a year in the timeline and locate the “Friends” box.
- 3. Click on “Made X New Friends.”
- 4. Scroll through the list. Where you see an “Add Friend” box, you know that you are no longer friends with that person. If you haven’t unfriended them, they’ve unfriended you.
There’s still no real-time Facebook alert for an unfriend. But if you’re really interested in learning more and more quickly about your declining online popularity, a browser plugin like Better Facebook is a good alternative.
Hopefully this information won't cause any rifts among friends before then.“Fun! =-) People always get so hostile when I unfriend them,” said another commentor on Facebook.“I'm sure to get a lot of death threats now.”
