Here’s a cool trick:
Add Facebook Chat to your Firefox sidebar

1.) In the Bookmarks menu, select Organize Bookmarks…
2.) Click on the New Bookmark…
3.) In the Name Field enter “Facebook Chat”. Enter http://www.facebook.com/presence/popout.php for the location and check the Load this bookmark in the sidebar checkbox.

Now you can have Facebook chat in your firefox sidebar.

I logged in and set myself as online on the facebook chat, and within 10 minutes, I had 4 messages from people I don’t really want to talk to. Unfortunately, if I want to use it as the new “drunk dial” or for those booty calls, it is the price I’ll pay.

Absolutely hate the chat feature. Eventually had to log in to MSN to chat properly last night. Couldnt get on with it.

is it just me or is that what MSN is for. If you have a facebook you most likely have some form of instant messenger. I will never use this feature of facebook.

Today? The feature has been active ever since this weekend. Nothing new really. However, I agree it’s a nifty feature. Very helpful for people who do not want to run 5 different IM in order to keep up with their friends.

Who cares that it doesnt have SSL? MSN messenger doesn’t either.

Opera Browser? With less than a 1% market share, nobody will care about your problems. Congrats on beating out netscape and mozilla though.

Facebook Chat has recently launched, allowing you to communicate with your Facebook Friends instantly. You are using a browser we don’t currently support.

Switch to Firefox
Switch to Internet Explorer 7
Switch to Flock

and I’m using Opera…wath a bunch of idiots…not switching to other browser just because of stupid facebook…
