Chat With Chit Chat - Facebook Messanger on your Desktop

Sometimes the most obvious solution to a problem isn’t the best one, in this instance the Facebook Messenger that is offered by Facebook isn’t actually the best Facebook Messenger out there. Whilst there are a range of alternatives – Windows Live Messenger, ICQ etc. this article will focus on one in particular – Chit Chat for Facebook.

        About Chit Chat for Facebook

Created by independent software developer “Athena IT Limited” based close to Oxford England, Chit Chat for Facebook was the first Messenger client launched for Facebook and remains a popular – if underground choice as a Facebook Messenger.

Whilst the masses now select Facebook Messenger as their desktop client of choice trusting the tried and true Facebook brand, those curious for a better solution to their instant messenger needs ought to check out this independently developed Facebook client.

Indeed, in addition to offering a robust and reliable Messenger client for Facebook chatting, Chit Chat provides a whole range of functionality that the rather thin Facebook Messenger doesn’t actually provide – my favourite difference are the ability to keep the Messenger window or IM window on top (let’s face it, when your Messaging, your also likely to also be doing something else on your computer). Other added bonus is that you don’t need to be a technical wiz in order to use Chit Chat, as it doesn’t require any additional software to be uninstalled unlike the popular Facebook Messenger. It also provides a nice clean interface that shows you clearly whom is logged in, away or offline with your buddy icons – or profile pictures.

Those logged into Facebook constantly fluctuates, and so should your buddy list whilst Facebook Messenger doesn’t readily provide you with this information, Chit Chat for Facebook does in a handy popup window.

One thing that Chit Chat for Facebook won’t do for you is log into other messaging networks- such as AIM, Windows Live Messenger, and ICQ etc. You’d need an application like Digsby or E-Buddy for that.

Also on the negative side, whilst Facebook Messenger is completely ad free at the time of writing, Chit Chat for Facebook is ad supported, however, you can opt out of most advertising should you choose to do so without affecting your messaging experience.

To conclude, there are a variety of applications that provide access to Facebook chatting other than that of Facebook’s Messenger. The Facebook Messenger login app Chit Chat for Facebook is one such application that is worth your time checking out to see if it provides benefits that are more useful to you than Facebook’s own Messenger client.

Peace and Happy Chatting.
