Facebook listened to their users and improves further the Facebook Chat bar


When Facebook introduced their video calling feature with Skype to their users, a lot applaud for this. When that happened, the Facebook Chat bar was also "improved". Well it really wasn't an improvement at all, for me it was crappy and I am sure most of you share the same feeling. Good thing Facebook listened to their users.





Facebook just rolled out or implemented the new Facebook Chat bar. A bar that totally works. Now the new chat bar is now scroll-able. Before it only limited you to view your friends who you most of the time interacted with. With this new "reorganization" of the Chat bar, Facebook now includes a "more online friends" section right inside the bar which now allows you to view all of your online friends.

That is my chat bar above, the browser is not set to maximized that is the reason why it looks like a pop up box. A photo below will show you the same chat bar but with my browser fully maximized.


For those who use their browsers full maximized (I am referring to Windows-based PCs) then this is not new to you. The chat bar will not look like its a pop up box but rather it will look like it's part of your Facebook's homepage, or your Facebook for that matter. 

The only really unlikable think about the previous version of the chat bar (same photo above) was the lack of the "more online friends" section. This version works well for me. How about you? Do you think this is a great revision from Facebook?
