Giftorama is an alternative. It’s a mix of free and paid-for gifts on Facebook, but most are free.

I think the free gifts application is fully justified. If people want to pay for gifts, then what is to stop them? On the other hand students like to send each other little ‘presents’ to show signs of affection–I don’t see why we should have to pay for it! One might say that other applications should be payed for: should we pay for videos? For wall-posts? For photos?! Of course not. The whole point being that they are VIRTUAL gifts, such an application is really not dissimilar to any other facebook function.

Facebook no longer donates a portion of paid gifts to charity. This was just in February.

I have not added this application, as I believe the gifts should be paid for, not everyone will pay for a gift,but in doing so it’s more formal, it proves you obviously think highley of someone than a useless free gift anyone could give.

“And that’s what might be worrying Facebook execs about this source of revenue which comes directly from users.”

What about the ads, flyers, polls, sponsored groups, the ads in the news feed, etc?
