You know that feeling where you are having a sneaky look at a friend’s profile on Facebook and you are so happy that they can’t actually see that you are checking them out? Well it has just become a thing of the past thanks to a new application called Fan check just launched on Facebook that allows you to see who is stalking you (or just generally checking out your profile). The application compiles data based on the way people react with your profile to find out who your biggest fans are, in their own words…
This application ranks your friends based on how often they interact with your Facebook wall. Interactions counted include wall posts, comments, likes, gifts and other public items posted to your wall. We do NOT count page views or private messages.
The application will display your top fans in an easy to view mosiac and has become so viral because a)people have always wanted to know who is viewing their profile on Facebook and b)it tags you in photos that then appear in your friends news stream meaning that it had 5 million downloads on Sunday and has had nearly 20 million in total. You can expect the application to start breaking up relationships and causing rows between friends pretty soon as jealous partners find out just who their other half is interacting with in even greater detail than normal, we see trouble ahead!!

Er, what part of “we do not count page views” didn’t you understand?
Well it certainly gives you a very good idea of who is following your profile more than others and more importantly gives that info to others too
“You know that feeling where you are having a sneaky look at a friend’s profile on Facebook and you are so happy that they can’t actually see that you are checking them out? Well it has just become a thing of the past”
No – nothing has changed. It doesn’t tell you who is looking at your profile – that is against facebooks TOS! It measures interactions with your wall, etc…
Title of post, and introduction is totally misleading.
does this really work?
Application “Fan Check” is unavailable
The application “Fan Check” is temporarily unavailable due to an issue with its third-party developer. We are investigating the situation and apologise for any inconvenience.
How about the new “Who is following you”-app? Does that not count page views either?
No it doesn’t. it says so the first time you use it.
counting App views is against Facebooks’ Terms-of-Use, and every-time an app finds a way to do it Facebook fixes the problem and removes the app.

It says in the description it doesn’t let you see who viewed your facebook page. It only uses wall posts.
[...] Facebook was written in jest, but you can’t pick this up in the tone? What if they have the Facebook app that lets you see who checks out your profile the most and a bit of harmless peeking looks like [...]
What a bunch of retards. The ONLY reason apps like this are created, is to grab your email so that they can promote / sell you something later, again and again. That goes for 99% of the FB apps.
its THAT simple.
App not fout
App NOT FOUND!!!!!!!!
[...] There is one called Fan-Check. View the link below for more information on it: http://www.simplyzesty.com/social-me…find-stalkers/ [...]
wall posts, comments, likes, gifts and other public items posted to your wall are already obvious….how is this going to cause problems or ID stalkers? If you are interacting with them already it’s not a secret.
I don’t like it, it reminds me of Hi5. Makes me not want to be apart of Facebook. In the end Hi5 was no longer popular.
The App has been removed from FB. Wonder why ?
