Facebook to Begin Removing Third-Party User Profile Tabs on November 3rd
A couple years ago, Facebook envisioned profile tabs as a way for developers to reach users on their profile pages. The feature replaced the MySpace widget-like Boxes on user profiles that many developers grew through when the platform launched in 2007.
But, more recent site designs have focused user and developer attention on the news feed, requests and invites as ways of promoting enagement. So, as with Boxes, user profile tabs are becoming obsolete.
Facebook will stop letting users add tabs for third-party applications this coming Wednesday, October 13th.
