Preview: Silverlight 4 Facebook client




Microsoft has released a preview version of the Silverlight 4 Beta Client for Facebook. The software, not to be confused with the similar Fishbowl client for Windows 7, offers a slick user interface to explore Facebook and currently comes with these features:

  • Drag/drop pictures from your computer to a photo album
  • Status updates
  • Photo feed
  • Notifications for received messages
  • Attach a photo to post
  • Watch video on Facebook
  • Outlook integration (right-click on events)
  • No games (it’s not a bug, it’s a feature!)

Note: When you run this application you’ll be installing the developer builds of Silverlight.  When Silverlight 4 releases, unless you are a developer, you’ll likely want to uninstall this plugin and install the released software.  This sample application is being provided as a developer preview to showcase and inspire.
