Greasemonkey FacebookWant to use Facebook without all that logging in nonsense. Then switch to Firefox and install the Greasemonkey script system. Now, head on over to the Greasemonkey userscripts page and install the Facebook Auto-Login script.

Finally, login to Facebook normally and allow Firefox to save your password. Next time Facebook asks for a login, the Auto-Login script will call your password from Firefox and log you in automatically.

There are hundreds more Greasemonkey scripts for Facebook, including ones that show bigger profile pictures, make album browsing easier, reveal a user’s age, and change redirected links to direct links.

    Aren’t there many other auto-fillers out there too? Also, this works for any website and not just Facebook ;)

    My son alerted me to an app that lets you change color scheme. I suspect there are also Greasemonkey scripts that do the same, but obviously these only have an effect in your browser not the world view of your page.
