How to Create a Facebook Friends List

So by now you probably have more than a few friends on Facebook. But the more friends you have, the more noise there is.

Luckily there’s a way to filter out the noise and increase productivity on the platform and it’s by creating a Facebook Friends List.

Never Miss an Update

After you’ve created your Facebook Friends List you will be able to add specific friends to the list. Once those friends have been added you’ll then see all updates from ONLY those friends when accessing the list.

One particular feature I like is the ability to manage your Facebook Friends List and control which type of Friends updates you’ll see.

Types of Updates:

  • Status Updates
  • Photos
  • Games
  • Comments and Likes
  • Music and Videos
  • Other Activities

Update the Right People

The final benefit of creating a Facebook Friends List is that you can send an update out to that list and ONLY friends that are apart of the list will see it. This is awesome for those of you who play Facebook games, as you can send out game notifications to only those friends who you play with (after making a specific list for them of course).

Choose a specific list before sending out your update.

It’s very likely your family is on Facebook and some of your updates may not be appropriate for them to see or vice-versa; create a list for your family members or even your co-workers. There’s no end to the possibilities when it comes to Facebook Friends Lists.
