Recently I came to the realization that I was out of space on the 150GB Hard Drive my Macbook came with. So I was in a bit of a pickle. Do I migrate everything to an external? Do I delete stuff? What are my options? I have old external hard drive set up as my Time Machine so I decided to head over to trusty Newegg.com and buy a new internal hard drive.
I was in luck, the 640GB Western Digital Scorpio was on sale so I made the purchase while preparing for the Super Bowl last Sunday. Tuesday afternoon rolled around and I already had my hard drive so I began this amazingly easy process. I will break it down in steps below:

Facebook only wants us to have 250 friends, or so the new update leads us to believe.
In a new setting (at least a setting that I just learned about), Facebook has limited your news feed to 250 random people you are friends with. I have roughly 524 friends, which means that I won’t see updates from more than half of the people I ‘know’ on Facebook. I didn’t choose what 250 I would see, meaning I could see updates from people I don’t care about and miss out on my best friends. There is a list of ‘Recommended Friends’ but I don’t care who they recommend, I want to see everybody!
The important part, how to get rid of it. It’s very simple. Scroll down to the bottom of your news feed and you will see an ‘Edit Options’ button. Click and on the bottom left of the screen that pops up it will say “Control how many friends you want shown in Live Feed,” tell it 5000, which is the maximum amount of friends Facebook allows you to have.
Happy Facebook-ing
