Fine tune your friends order
As one of the developers that helped build the new Spaces Friends experience, I wanted to share an insiders tip on how you can fine tune the order your Friends appear in your Friends list. In the Edit Friend page near the top of the page, you can change the order Friends appear by choosing one of the following options:
- Near the top
- Near the bottom
- Doesn't matter
This makes it easy to quickly organize your friends, but it just does not provide the fine tuning some power users might want. So we provided an undocumented, super secret hack that will allow more precise control. Add a special tag.
sort:1
Any tag in this format (sort:x where x is a number) will allow fine tune control of where your friends appear. If you save the sort:1 tag on a friend you will notice that this friends becomes the very first person in your friends list. When you open the friend again, you will notice that the special tag (sort:1) does not appear in your tags list. The position is maintained until you override it, say with a different value: sort:10.
