Seems to me facebook chat is now blocking links. Has anyone else noticed this - one contact I've noticed it didn't block anything.

What do you think of this - it's a good idea to prevent spam/abuse but awkward when just wanting to share important links e.g. work related and so on

weird it seems working again - but I was sending a link to a facebook page a legal one and it wouldn't work so i tried other links with other contacts and they wouldn't work to. However I can only see 2 chats open at a time these days so wouldn't be surprised if facebook are having a mess about with a few things

Everything is fine. But i think it's good for them to block inappropriate websites like porn.

nah think it was a bug as it was blocking all links at one point.
