Tired of all the advertisements in FaceBook? Tired of all the crap? The instability of the web app, the horrible chat interface? Here is your fix. it works for both Windows and Linux. The only difference is the file you download when you get the Pidgin mod. Of course you will download the exe for Windows and a DEB or TARGZ for Linux. If you are using MAC, figure it out… you had the money to buy a MAC, you have the money to buy some tech support to figure it out.

Use Adobe Air in conjunction with Pidgin. For the Adobe Air application you want to get ahold of the uploader. This is basically a light weight FB application. You can just upload a picture by dragging and dropping on the app. Very nice. Either search the Adobe Air Marketplace for it or download it direct from here.

Now, install pidgin if you are not using it already (sudo apt-get install pidgin)
Install a supporting file for the mod. libjson-glib-1.0-0_0.7.6-0ubuntu1_i386.deb
