Today Facebook released what seems to be their first official Mac application, and as far as I know their first desktop app altogether, Facebook Notifications. I was very happy to hear about it (just in time) because I recently upgraded to Snow Leopard to discover that my previous Facebook client, FMenu, crashed on launch. FMenu had always been sort of weird and buggy anyways, so I was glad to be rid of it.
Facebook Notifications (Preferences Window)
Of course, it isn’t at the 1.0 mark yet (they started with 0.5), and it won’t be fully featured for a while. It doesn’t seem to update you via Growl whenever friends update their statuses like FMenu did, but it does use Growl for other notifications such as invitations or private messages. I also haven’t had a crash or any buggy behaviour so far.
