If you are a frequent user of Facebook and don’t like to open Facebook every now and then for checking the updates, you will need some sort of desktop client for Facebook in order to get all the updates on your desktop.
There’s a desktop client provided by Facebook but it’s not all that good. There’s another app that can serve the purpose of Facebook notifications on the desktop. Facebook Desktop is a wonderful desktop client for Windows and Mac. It is an Adobe Air application which is very light weight. It displays the updates on your desktop like all other notifications just over the status bar on the bottom right corner of the screen. You can click on any update in order to read it in Facebook.
You can see the Facebook Desktop in action in this video:
You will need to install Adobe Air in order to run Facebook Desktop. Facebook Desktop can be downloaded from the author’s site.
