  It is good, but unnecessary

  by: ExtremeDownloader on 14-Aug-2007 07:22:12 PM

  Pros: It is a great tool to help alert you to Facebook notifications such as friend requests and stuff.

  Average experience needed to use this program: 0.5/10 (it is one of the easiest things to use!)

  Cons: I would recommend the Facebook Toolbar for Firefox instead. It has much more advanced features and allows you to keep track of status and profile updates and lets you click on Quick Links to get there right in your browser. This is a waste of disk space.

  So far, so good. It's only been 20 minutes!

  by: mandypearlmckay on 27-Jul-2007 10:52:30 PM

  Pros: I like having the icon in the bottom right corner, as I do with all my "important" accessories. The opened window of this feature is small enough to have open all the time, with whatever I'm doing.

  Cons: It's only been 20 minutes, so I'll have to see how it goes. I'm giving it a 4 for it's size on the screen, and the icon that makes it handy.
