The Facebook terms do not allow this to happen (for anything, including, but not limited to, pictures, videos, and the profile page itself). ie. Facebook does not allow users to track profile views or see statistics on how often a particular piece of content has been viewed and by whom.

There have been several applications that have claimed to do this in the past, but they either didn't work or were removed by facebook for violating its privacy terms.

Third party developers, however, may offer applications that provide some of this functionality, subject to the following terms:


1. Applications cannot track profile views for users who simply visit another person's profile. Facebook has made this technically impossible.
2. In order to be tracked by an application, you must explicitly agree to allow the application to access your information.
3. Adding an application that provides this functionality is purely optional. If you do not want to participate, please do not add the application to your account.

Unlike myspace, Facebook's philosphy is to let users view what they want without others knowing what they viewed.

So you can check out that cute guy/girl with no worries about them finding out, but you will not be able to find out who has been viewing yours.

Yes. Go to Facebook's home page (http://www.facebook.com/) and right click. Select the option "View Source" or similar. If this option doesn't show up, try using a different browser. (Chrome, Firefox, IE7, etc.) Scroll down or hit CTRL + F and type in "friendslist". You will then see a bunch of numbers followed by a -1,
-2, -3, -0, etc. The numbers before the -# correlate to the Facebook ID of one of your friends. For example, if the string looked like:

"100001799198152-3"

You would type in: http://www.facebook.com/100001799198152

The numbers are listed in order of who viewed your Facebook profile most recently.
