With many asserting that Google+ is heavily Facebook influenced, Facebook engineers Vladimir Kolesnikov, Peng Fan, Zahan Malkani, Brian Rosenthal have flipped the switch and taken inspiration from the novel Google Circles design with Circlehack, a much simpler tool to build Facebook Friend lists.
How it works?You have to login in the Facebook account to use the Circle Hack Feature. You have many choices for selecting circles like Family, Friends, College Buddies, etc. To create friend list into circle, just drag your friends on it. You can manage your friend separately or you can choose several people at once. Circle Hack also adds paperclip graphic that shows numbers of people who are dragged by you into the current circle. After creating your circle, you will see your created list as an option in the “Friends” section and in your privacy settings. You can easily remove friends from the circle by just dragging it out from the circle. You can create as many as friend list circle.

While Circlehack doesn’t have all the design features of Google+ e.g. the circles your friends are members of don’t glow upon hover and you can’t automatically set Groups or privacy settings within the app, it’s a start, at least for Facebook.
