I don't believe so, there are apps that will show the people who look at you most but its completely fake and just picks 10 friends at random.

Facebook have said themselves that no application has the power to tell anyone who has looked at their profile, due to their privacy laws.

Mutt - the suggested friends are people that ar friends with one or more of your friends list - nothing to do with people who have looked at your profile

I've heard the same thing and rather bizarrely after i went nosing around a few months back an ex boyfriend suddenly tried to add me as a friend... could have been coincidance but i'm not sure

Mutt, has anyone tried to add you using the email address you signed up with, and you are seeing their friends as suggestions?

said · 24/03/2010 20:00

You'll be linked via your email address - friends of friends on emails

hocuspontas · 24/03/2010 20:02

yes agree - my 'suggested friends' are just random people taken from my email address book
