Most of you normally login to your Facebook account by typing your email id that was used while registration.

Everyone like to use a username instead of their email addresses.

Sometime in June 2009, Facebook introduced Vanity URLs to all users.

Vanity URL is one of the nice to have feature for every user. Vanity URL allows you to set a nice username (facebook.com/iamunique) in the URL instead of having a alphanumeric characters (facebook.com/?profile=abc123).

You can create your own username using this link – www.facebook.com/username

Take time and create a suitable username for your account. This is a one-off task and it can’t be changed forever.

Once you create the Facebook username, you can use the username to login to facebook instead of your email id.

However you are still will be able to login to Facebook using your email address.

Facebook is flooded with lots of applications and everyday we are introduced to new applications by family and friends.

You would have added so many applications but latter on you might realise that, it is not the one for you. If you don’t remove such applications from your profile, you will receive unnecessary updates and your Facebook experience may turn to be worst.

Here are the steps that would help you to remove the applications from Facebook profile.

1. Logon to Facebook

2. Click on Applications->Edit Applications which is there on the bottom left of your Facebook page. 

3. This would display the available applications for your profile. From the select box choose Authorised to display all applications that are authorised by you.

4. From the listed applications, select the application you want to remove. (In this example let us remove the Twitter application)

5. Click on Remove to confirm the removal

6. Now the application is successfully removed from you the your Facebook profile.

Watching YouTube videos are always fun. Here are some random tips that will give you a better YouTube experience.

You could see the HQ button on the  player that toggles the video quality between Normal and High quality.

Login to YouTube, which is pre-requisite for this tip, and go select Account->Playback Setup. You will get the following page.

Based on the your Internet speed you can default the video playback quality to either Normal or High. If you are not sure of your Internet speed, then you can leave this with YouTube to select the playback quality.

In the same page, you can also find the option to turn-of annotations permanently for all videos. I would personally suggest to turnoff annotations, because most of the annotations in YouTube videos are useless; also distract the video playback.

Select your preferences and click on Save Changes.

Enjoy watching YouTube videos!
