Android Question

I have a HTC Wildfire S with HTC Sense and I have 2 facebook apps that are taking up a lot of memory. I keep running into storage/memory issues and was hoping that I can delete one of the two apps to free up memory.

How do I do this? Which one is most commonly used and best to keep?
 
If they are pre-installed apps you would need to root the phone to uninstall them.

If you are on android 4 you can disable them, but on a Wildfire S I guess not.

For what it's worth, removing a system app won't save space because it lives in a different partition. But clearing data for a a system app you don't use will, as all app data live in your internal storage.

I can't suggest which app you are better without because I don't use Facebook (and being rooted I removed all Facebook apps).
 
Look in settings-->Application Manager. One of the FB applications should be removable, because you probably downloaded it. The other one, like Hadron mentioned, is probably pre-installed on your phone so you won't be able to uninstall it.
