Hey guys

I recently saw this open source and free product from Microsoft using their Silverlight program (it's like flash but better). It's a facebook app with a VERY nice UI.

Check it out there.

Thanks for sharing this info, but what exactly do we have here? is it essentially a complete revamp of the Facebook skin/layout? If so, does it cause any problems when Facebook try to introduce their own usual updates?

It's just a client to Facebook, instead of having to use the web interface you use the program.

Also it shouldn't break with Facebook update their site.

I've started using it now and it's pretty fantastic! Only thing I would say to improve it is to show who is online - maybe in the huge space on the right hand side of the main home view. In fact, is there even a chat feature? Also where do notifications show up?
