Facebook is a social utility that connects people with friends and others who work, study and live around them. As a Facebook user, I have begun to enjoy using it. Some people even use Facebook to sell some junks online. But I haven’t been experimenting on that.

If you feel like getting rid of some junks, make a buck or two, here are 10 really cool Facebook applications for you. They are really nice alternatives besides selling on auction site, if you are a facebook user.

1. Surkle - Surkle is a new and exciting global trading community which allows anyone to simply trade almost anything from almost anywhere in the world with anyone else in the world. Bartering has been the first type of commerce since the dawn of man with people trading products and services for other products and services prior to the existence of currency.
