Get Facebook Without Being On The Site

A new application called Facebook Desktop sends you notifications about the social network without requiring you to have your browser open to the site.

Want to read your friends’ status updates even when you can’t have the social network site open in your browser, like when you’re at the office? A new application called Facebook Desktop does exactly that.

When friends post updates, comment on a photo, create a new tag or do anything else that would trigger a story to go out to others’ newsfeeds, Facebook Desktop users will receive notifications on their desktops, similar to how instant messages appear.
