Facebook Turns On Instant Notification Popup Alerts

In an effort to make interaction on Facebook more real-time no matter where users are on the site, Facebook today turned on a new feature called “immediate notifications.” Now, when users receive a notification from Facebook or any Facebook application, a small popup window will appear in the bottom right hand corner of the screen.

The feature means applications should get higher click-through rates across the board. However, the new popups should be the biggest boon for developers of multiplayer Facebook games, especially turn-based games.
