What Is 'Close Friends' Section in Facebook? How Can I Manage Friends in 'Close Friends' List?

Close Friends is a Friends list inside your friends list which separates some friends from all other friends in the list who are under acquaintances or are uncategorized.
If you post anything on your wall or as a status and select Close friends, only the people inside the close friends list will be able to view it and the actions will not be visible to other users from your account.

Close friends is a smart list, it gives priority to friends who are inside it. Apart from this, the friends who are added in your Close Friends list get detailed notification about every status update that you post, and the activity that you perform on Facebook.
