Facebook Chat has become an important tool for keeping in touch with
friends. In fact, I would go so far as to say that in comparison to the
other features on Facebook (news feed, photo albums, etc.) I think Facebook Chat is vastly underrated.
But…you know what you and I – and most of the people we know
– have in common? We all hate how Facebook has been messing with our
chat setup. First, they made the chat bar a permanent fixture on the
right side of my screen. Then they messed with the people I had listed
there, only showing me my “top connections” who may or may not be
online. Currently, I can scroll down to see “more friends online”, but
it still feels like a work in progress.
I understand why Facebook is doing this. Chat is becoming the primary
way we IM our friends, and having those conversations keeps us on the
site longer, so keeping the chat open and displaying our top
connections, theoretically, should increase our chat time, et cetera, et
cetera. But I would still like to be able to see everyone in one place.
Who’s with me?
