I'm just wondering, supposedly the Facebook list of the 6 friends or whoever that show up on someone's profile rotate randomly. However, I've noticed on a friends page the same person seems to keep popping up much more often than anyone else, which would lead me to believe its not random. Does anyone know about this? Does it mean my friend is looking at that profile that keeps popping up or something to that effect or is it really just random?
I do know that you can have the friend box set to display the same friends all the time (using the edit tool in the friend box). But since the other names are different I know that is not what happened in this case.
i noticed today that the list did not change on a few profiles, but did on a couple when i would refresh screen.

Yeah, the random display of friends hasn't been rotating on my friends profiles or my profile for over a month now - haven't changed or clicked anything. I emailed facebook about it, but they never replied.
U know, I noticed the same thing on my FaceBook Friends' List too. There's this one guy who's profile rotates much more frequently than anyone else. It's weird cause I have like 150 friends so u'd think if it was random, he wouldn't be popping up so much. But nope, every day seems like I see his profile rotating up. He must be visiting my profile or something because this is NOT random at all... I wonder really the way cyberspace works...things that don't appear random may not be random...cause I kind of like him too and hope that maybe he may like me too...but i dunno...maybe i notice him more because i like too...LOL. Can you let me know if you find out?
Same thing! it can NOT be random. i refreshed a friends page like 10 times because i didnt want to see their face (haha) it took that many time for that person to not be in the rotation!!
For me I think it usually shows the people who profiles i am on the most and who I talk to the most. Maybe it works in the way adverts do and remembers what you seem to look at the most (so its more targeted)
i just noticed yesterday that by clicking on the little edit-button on your friends box, you can "make it always" show certain friends - so it's not necessarily always random.
