What do you think? …

Henrik Lenberg
Was really hoping this would allow me to do FB messaging quickly without having to open the browser, but pretty disappointed that it's more or less just a wrapper for web views which still opens a lot of small browser windows. Perhaps it's not possible to do native messaging with the FB API though?
Scott Kyle
@lenberg I hope you'll at least give it a try, and let me know what you think are its shortcomings by using web views. :)
Dave Fontenot
@lenberg the separate chat windows change the game. It also uses up significantly less RAM than the /messages tab.

This just seems like something Facebook would block if it got popular. Their services, no revenue stream (unless there's something between the companies unannounced).
Scott Kyle
@singer we have no secret deal, but I'm getting lots of positive reviews from Facebook employees. I'm not after their revenue stream. I don't block ads or insert my own, so I think we can coexist happily. Also, it would be technically very challenging for them to block Current, and would just turn into a cat and mouse game. :)
David Singer
@appden I understand you're not blocking ads, but you are offering an ad-free Facebook experience for a product that you charge for, no? That's what it appears to be from your site.
Scott Kyle
@singer The chat windows don't have ads, but I've observed that it actually increases engagement with Facebook as a whole.
