A New App Automatically Sends Birthday Messages o Your Facebook Friends

One of the weird side effects of the Facebook era is the people you haven't talked to in ten years who post "Happy Birthday!" on your wall once a year. If you want to look that thoughtful . . . even though you're not . . . we finally have a solution for you.

A web developer just released an app for the Google Chrome web browser. If you're not using that browser you can download it . . . and the app . . . for free.

The app checks which of your Facebook friends is having a birthday . . . and then automatically posts a "Happy Birthday" message on their wall. You can even choose to have it rotate between a few different messages.

Now you can wish all of your long-lost friends from elementary school a happy birthday without actually having to do ANYTHING.
