Facebook Chat Launches - Tour & First Impressions
April 6th, 2008
Facebook has just turned on Chat in a “few networks” (including mine) this morning and I think it’s a great implementation. While Facebook hasn’t announced an official rollout schedule, Chat will be gradually rolling out over the coming days.
Facebook has added a new Chat bar to the bottom of the page that’s always present everywhere on the site. (It’s there by default, and you’re not able to hide it.) The Chat bar gives you access to your current chat windows, online friends list, notifications, chat settings, and your online status.
![]()
1) Chat Windows
When a new chat comes in, Facebook highlights the conversation in the Chat bar with a red bubble.
![]()
You can then click on that conversation to open up a chat window with your friend.

You can then minimize the chat window to get it out of the way. If you close a chat window accidentally, you can view recent chat history by opening a chat window with that same friend. Although recent chats are saved across sessions, older chat conversations are NOT archived. You can click “clear chat history” to clear the chat window immediately at any time.
Overall, the Chat bar works very smoothly and with a lot of ajaxy goodness. But if you have a lot of conversations going on, you can also pop out your chats into their own window:

The popout window uses tabs on the right to select between conversations, but doesn’t allow each conversation to have its own window like many desktop chat applications do. It’s a bit bulky, but it does allow you to alt-tab over to your chats even if you don’t want to be on Facebook.com.
2) Online Friends List
The Online Friends list shows you who amongst your Facebook friends 1) are currently active on the site, and 2) were recently active but are now idle. There are no “buddy lists” to set up (though Friend Lists are coming soon) - all your Facebook friends appear here automatically.
Unlike most legacy chat networks, Facebook friends always show up with their real name - not “soccergrrl1984.” Only your confirmed Facebook friends show up here - you’re not able to chat with anyone else on the site.
Facebook has integrated Status Updates into your presence snapshot into the Online Friends list. This should increase the volume of Status Updates published tremendously.
Overall, keeping the Online Friends list open throughout your Facebook session makes Facebook a much more engaging real-time communication experience. I think this means a lot more people will be leaving Facebook open all day
3) Notifications & Feed Items
With the launch of chat, Facebook has moved the access point to notifications from the top of the right rail of the home page to the Chat Bar.
Facebook is also pulling other features from the site “into the real-time chat world.” For example, your Mini-Feed stories by default appear in chat windows. This means if you’re playing a game and chatting at the same time, your friends will know
4) Chat Settings & Online Status
If you don’t want to be accessible via chat when you’re on Facebook, you can easily “Go Offline.” This will prevent you from showing up in your friends’ “Online Friends” lists.
In addition, you can choose whether or not to 1) keep your Online Friends list open throughout your visit to the site, and 2) whether or not you want Mini-Feed stories to appear inside your chat windows.
If you need help, Facebook has provided a simple FAQ for you as well.
Conclusion
Facebook Chat is a very compelling experience that will spell trouble for legacy IM networks that haven’t built vibrant social networks around their friend lists (i.e. AIM). By making Facebook more real time/presence oriented, Facebook session length should go up a lot. Facebook will become an important player in IM very soon.
What does Chat mean for developers? Currently, Facebook does not support Platform integration with Chat, though a couple of weeks ago Facebook’s Matt Cohler indicated that adding Chat APIs (and Jabber support) is in their plans. Obviously, just like Facebook, developers are interested in finding additional ways to engage their users.
For a few developers like social.im, Facebook Chat is obviously a big blow. While social.im continues to focus on building a desktop client, if Facebook doesn’t allow apps to integrate with the core Facebook chat service, it’s going to be extremely challenging for third parties to gain a critical mass of users.

Facebook Chat has been very slow today. I’ve had a couple of conversations with friends, and some messages are delayed in being sent (upwards of 30 seconds in some instances), and one message mid-conversation didn’t make it to the other person at all (”Facebook Chat is unable to connect at this time).

[…] 于是很多人会奇怪,为什么Facebook可以如此快速的壮大起来?分析起来主要有两个原因, 1,良好的概念。 Facebook是基于公司,地区,学校的人际网络。加入这个网络,你可以从中了解到很多自己所认识的人的信息。 每个人都有一面属于自己的Wall,类似一个博客的发布地,但是概念稍有不同,Wall的本身脱胎于公告栏,你可以在上面贴贴子,当然别人也能,在公告栏上贴的东西可以设定只让加了自己的朋友看见,也可以让所有人都看见。其中Wall上除了有贴贴子之外,还可以什么链条,叫Wall-to-Wall,就好象Wall-to-Wall的参与者把自己的公告板拉到一起来,互相在对方的Wall上留言,彼此都能看到。 但是只是如此,并不能体现出Facebook与传统的博客有什么太大的区别,甚至可以说与BBS系统没什么区别。Facebook有一个很有趣的点子,充分为自己做到的宣传,那就是在Wall上所有与自己有关的留言都会以EMAIL的形式提醒用户,这样,用户就不会错过朋友的公告与留言了。这也直接地提高了Facebook的访问率。 你想接收某个朋友的Wall更新,在Facebook里有一个概念,叫做poke。这个词很容易让人有不好的联想,有点下流。但是它的本意是你捅一下你的朋友,以引起他的注意。如果你想接收朋友的更新,就使用poke,其实就是开放一种许可,当朋友确认之后,每当他的设定的你可看到信息有任何变化,都会有 EMAIL提醒你。于是你就可以跟踪到朋友的所有想展示给你的消息。当然,反过来,你也就多了一种方式让自己的朋友去了解自己想展示的东西。 既然是人际网络,那么自然会有礼物,有活动,有状态,有IM(这个这两天才开通),有社区,有群。这些东西都不是什么太新鲜的东西,但概念与包装不同,效应就不同。 除些之外,Facebook也体现出了一定的开放性,提供了一个开放的平台。利用这个框架,第三方软件开发者可以开发与Facebook核心功能集成的应用程序。 总结起来,Facebook利用了一个良好的概念,那就是keep in touch.不向传统的论坛与博客,你要自己上网站才能了解到自己所关注的东西有没有更新,Facebook十刻不忘用EMAIL提醒你,你的公告板上有人写东西了,你写在别人的公告上有回复了,你的朋友有新东西让你看了…… 当然,这都是基于权限保护的,所以,放心地使用Facebook,并在上面了解你所遇到的人吧。 ” Discover the people around you Facebook is made up of many networks, each based around a company, region, or school. Join the networks that reflect your real-life communities to learn more about the people who work, live, or study around you. Do more Facebook’s Platform enables anyone, anywhere, to build complete applications that you can choose to use. The possibilities are endless. Define your experience on Facebook by choosing applications that are useful and relevant to your world. Keep it private At Facebook, we believe that people should have control over how they share their information and who can see it. People can only see the profiles of confirmed friends and the people in their networks. You can use our privacy settings at any time to control who can see what on Facebook. ” […]

Spell trouble? Yeah right, maybe for crappy clients, and maybe if they release a client version, but AIM is still AIM for a reason, everyone has it. The people who don’t have AIM have Yahoo, both systems are powerhorses that nothing have touched in the last 10 years. Gtalk is my secondary talk system after a aim/yahoo hybrid, but I only use that to talk to my closest circle, somehow everyone I meet online still gives Aim names, why is that for a system that has no social network?

Cool that FB finally jumped out of the “delayed-communication” world… and into real-time… but this isn’t really game changing enough to make a huge impact for most users.
This is a slightly fancied up instant messenger… and won’t cause people to stop using MSN IM, Gtalk, or AIM.
For me, the real benefit of the FB chat is that I might be able to consolidate some of my friends into one chat client now since most of them are on FB… but it still means that the person has to be logged into FB.
Really, not what I was expecting… I was hoping for a Twitterish 1 to many communication tool… but this is a cool advance for now.

from reports its facebook foundation uni networks thats getting this first therefore if you are a Regional or work network you got no chance these will be low down there lists.
also if your network is large (over 500,000 users) it also be later for capicity reasons
most probable launch
1. Facebook Network / Internal
2. US University/colleges networks (Early launch)
3. Mass US College Network
4. UK or/and Canadian Universities
5. US High schools
6. UK Canada High schools
7. US/ UK and Canada launch
8. rest of the world
Facebook will have a preference to there founder networks and the educational community then US, Canada and UK before other country networks (if not mass launched by then)
networks like NYC, Toronto, London etc (300k+) maybe down the list becuase of there size and the could cause problems therefore later launch
and all this to be rolled out this week - i still believe there could be some without it like 2 weeks time if the go for all is not choosen

Ricky, that is because they’ve only rolled out “chat” into certain Facebook networks. It doesn’t matter what or where the computer is, it only matter with what facebook network you are enrolled in… or at least this is my understanding.

I just got facebook chat today, and I LOVE IT!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
easy, fast, and I got to chat with a couple friends I had NEVER chatted with cause they don’t have msn, aim, skype, yahoo or anything like that.
Well done Facebook!!!!!!!!!!!!

I’d be really glad if facebook chat could store chat logs..
Perhaps it could store them temporarily on one of its servers, and then email them after a set interval, say, a day or two, or a week, or two weeks, or maybe even a month. And, perhaps, if facebook chat could send the logs to ANOTHER email address, other than their primary one at which they’d receive any notifications (if subscribed to). Nay?

Since the launch of facebook chat I have been unable to get past the homepage after logging into my facebook account. I tried disabling it but I could not figure out how. Has anyone else had a similar experience. I have tried to log on to facebook in various browsers including firefox, safari,and explorer. My girlfriend is having the same problem. I have only been able to access the version of the site for mobile devices with my ipod. Any advice? It’s a little frustrating, especially since I have never had problems logging in before.
Thanks!

I get annoyed when people I haven’t spoken with in years leave me messages on there as if it were my cellphone I need some privacy features, some people are cool to talk to with a delay while others you can handle instantly.
