News feed filter; public release.

New! Hide all those attention seeking whores from your Facebook news feed!

So I finished writing a bookmarklet hack for Facebook which filters out those annoying "who wants 1000 friend request" posts.

Bookmarklet is available here: https://goo.gl/sZDFU

And the code: https://goo.gl/uW4Ju

I've re-written the algorithm, so now it works on a 7 strike key word basis; there are still some words I need to add-in to make it more effective, so it might still miss some posts.

So far I've only tested it in Firefox, and Chrome.

I think if I'm to continue writing these bookmarklet hacks, I might actually compile all of them in to a browser extension, and host it on my own website.

Here are some more test shots;
