Tired of those Facebook ads you see from friends?
Here's a quick guide on filtering stuff without hurting your friend's feelings. This only works on auto-ads generated by your friend's facebook "likes." This doesn't work on promoted/purchased ads directly from facebook.
If you want to be nice to your friends, go to your own profile, and take a good look at the facebook pages you have "Liked" in the past. You might be surprised at what you're forcing your friends to endure.
First: Hover your mouse on the right side of the post. Look for the down arrow. Preferably the arrow next to the ad, and not your friend. Sometimes you may only see the one arrow, and you will have to choose which story to hide on step three.
Second: Click on "Hide..." This will immediately hide the post from your friend, but you're not done yet.
Third: Choose "Hide all stories from (insert facebook page name here)." If you had to select the arrow next to your friend's name, you can just choose to not filter out your friend, and only hide this one time ad.
