Today’s technological scenario is all about integration and making every task simpler and every information easily accessible. Well, similar are the thoughts of UXLabs at Microsoft. They have created a very sleek Facebook client application that brings the complete Facebook experience right on your Windows desktop – Fishbowl.
Although in a ‘trial’ (beta) stage, Fishbowl offers some features that surely will excite Facebook power users. Apart from the seamless integration with Facebook, here are some of the plus points of Fishbowl:
» Fishbowl offers mini-mode which is more fun and less obtrusive.
» Smooth user interface and sleek navigation. It supports drag n’ drop pictures to publish them on Facebook. Furthermore, it can go full screen and play a slideshow of your albums.
» You can update your status, view your friends’ albums, their updates, news-feeds and other notifications.
» “Interest Level”, my favorite feature, helps you filter your stream anonymously in order to avoid boring updates from friends.
» If you are a Windows 7 user, you can monitor your Facebook stream right from your taskbar using jumplists.
