myFace

Introduction

Introducing the long-awaited integration of myCourses and Facebook: myFace! Now you can find your classmates’ profiles directly from myCourses! MyFace has a number of uses, including:

  • Finding the smart people in your class for group projects
  • Avoiding the stupid people in your class for group projects
  • learning names of classmates and students
  • finding single girls/guys in your classes
  • making new friends =)


The Details

This Firefox extension will add an icon for each student on a myCourses classlist page (step 1). Clicking on this icon will initiate a search on Facebook for the corresponding student (step 2), enabling quick and easy access to his/her profile (step 3).
