Inside Facebook

In Facebook’s continuing campaign to improve user experience by adding new constraints to the viral channels it has made available to Platform applications thus far, Facebook today released an “Ignore All” requests button that allows users inundated with Facebook and application invitations and requests to wipe the slate clean with one click.

While many developers are upset by this move, it’s unlikely to have a large impact on application growth rates because users with dozens or hundreds of requests piling up are unlikely to convert at high rates. That being said, it’s one of many changes Facebook has made so far this year to limit certain aspects of various marketing channels.
