Its not Facebook, it's the people who add the applications. Facebook didnt create all those applications; anyone can.

I don't think there is a problem with the apps themselves. But...I do think a lot of members go overboard with showing too many applications on their profile. It really is unsightly to have so much junk on your page. Each application has the option as to whether or not to display it on your profile page. I have a LOT of apps that I find fun to mess around with, but most of mine are not displayed on my profile.

Oh my gosh yes. And people always say "well, facebook only allows people to make these apps they don't make or encourage it." But in fact their allowing and tolerance of these programs (a lot of which are obnoxious and I feel like 50% of what I do on facebook is eliminating spam) is encouragement. I think maybe they should rework it in a way that makes it less obtrusive to always be invited to add new apps.
