Facebook Chat in Adium 1.3

The newest version of Adium, the far superior iChat replacement, now incorporates Facebook chat! You know, that really annoying chat window that pops up now and then from someone you don’t talk to enough for them to have your number or screen name...

My favorite part about this is not the chatting ability, but rather that I can set my Facebook status easily without ever even opening up a browser.

Facebook Chat

Facebook used to be clean and easy to use, that's why pretty much every college student told MySpace where to stick it. Facebook was then opened to the public, which wasn't too much of a difference for most people. THEN applications were brought to Facebook... This caused a pretty big uproar and is still as issue among many students. The next big thing that Facebook just publicly released this morning is chat.

Facebook Chat

You could always see who was on Facebook right now by going to "Friends > Who's Online" but now you can go one step further and talk to those that are online right away. The chats are instant messages just like AOL Instant Messenger so there's no need to wait for a reply like in a personal message or wall post. Want to check it out? Go to Facebook right now, look on the bottom right corner of your window and you'll see the new chat box. Neat huh?
