I’d love to see a Facebook Statistics Application – a dashboard showing handy information such as:
Forgotten friends: Friends I haven’t been in touch with via Facebook in more than, say, six months.
Missing friends: Friends who haven’t logged into Facebook in more than say, six months.
Popular friends: Friends I keep in touch the most with via Facebook (Combines messages, likes, wall posts, comments, games)
Popular status updates: Which of my friends’ status updates have been the most popular in the past week? (Ones with the most comments or likes). Possibly filtering this by ones I haven’t “liked” or commented on so it helps me see ones I may have missed.
Popular photos: Which photos of mine (and my friends) have the most comments or likes?
Popular apps: Which apps do my friends use the most that I don’t have?
Facebook addicts: Which friends have uploaded the most photos recently? Commented the most? Done the most quizzes? Played the most games?
Would you find this handy? What would you like to see?

Oddly enough I went manually through my contacts this week, doing a “check-up” on friends I hadn’t been in contact with for a while… That would indeed be a cool app !
Nice blog btw.

Great ideas. I’d also love to know how many wall posts I have. I doubt there is a way but it would be cool to see how many people look at an album when you post it. Just some thoughts. Let me know if the app comes together! Thanks!

Managing Actions
I’d like to see what I call the Facebook Coefficient: the number of inbound posts to number of outbound posts as a kind of popularity counter. The coefficient number would indicate how popular you were, or if you were just a jerk.

[...] The coefficient can be computed manually, but would best be done by a Facebook App. I am a member of the Facebook Developers community, but I have yet to produce a Facebook app. This is in part because I never had a need to or an idea of what Facebook app to write. If you are a developer, feel free to use or adapt this idea. I would be interested in using it. For more ideas, check out this blog post about wanting Facebook Statistics. [...]
