The world needs another proprietary closed IM network like it needs another botnet. I’m not using Facebook Chat.

Facebook should institute an invisibility setting where you can still be “online” on chat but without showing up as online. That way, you can message people without getting harassed.

i finally saw the chat thing yesterday.

awesomely enough all the IMs I got were from people who know my AOL & Yahoo IM info. these are the same people who send me facebook messages instead of emailing me.

seems like some people just get off on having a new way to do the same old shit they’ve been doing for years…

Chat Reinforces the Social Graph…

Michael Arrington’s post both highlighting and lamenting Facebook Chat demonstrates a secondary function of Chat- it helps reinforce the social graph.

Michael – sorry but I think this serves you right for allowing people you don’t actually know to be your Facebook ‘friends’. Set up a brand/fan page if you have people that want to follow you, instead of messing up the social graph.

I first heard about FB chat from your online musings when you received a pre-release version. Glad to receive your feedback. Face it Michael, you’re just too popular! keep up the good work..

Facebook chat isn’t supposed to replace any of your other IM or communications tools. It’s just a nice little way to message your FB friends inline. Quit comparing it to other services.

The biggest issue I see is that you have to explicitly log out of Facebook or go offline with chat. If you just close the browser window, you will still be online and be open to 100’s of messages like Mike was when you return to visit the site later in the day.

For some reason I still find email and Adium to be a better way to communicate than Facebook’s system, and most of the friends I want to talk to are on Facebook. It could be because I don’t have time to talk to them often. It’s more likely due to the fact that I have many friends I don’t actually know, so Facebook to me has little value – my friend feed is usually full of information I don’t want to see. I suppose if I filtered my friend list down to actual friends I’d find messaging and chatting useful, but since email and IM already work well for that use case, what’s the advantage? Obviously for you, Mike, there is a big advantage given you communicate daily with lots of people you don’t know personally, but given the nature of your post it may be eventually require you to be invisible or filter who can chat with you as well (if they offer those features).

Well, Mike, that’s what you get for being desperate enough to friend the entire Internet.

Seriously, I actually lose respect for people who friend people like you. It makes them look desperate to look connected to supposedly important people.
