I use BetterFacebook ([betterfacebook.net] it offers the character counter PLUS many more features. For example, newsfeed filtering (it sorts news in user difined tabs). I'd cancel my facebook profile if it weren't for this feature.

Me too! A friend once succeded in calling my attention using this very trick on a folder we shared.

Just what I was going to ask, since I just dropped a 3mm long spring on my carpetted floor. Now to find someone who uses panty hose AND is willing to lend it.
