Facebook chat has only been released on *some* networks so far.

]]> <![CDATA[Facebook Chat Is Only Good For Spreading STDs]]> The first time I had a Facebook chat with a friend last week, the site famous for doing the stalking for you proved up for the task by telling me that my friend had just written on someone else's wall. Mind you, Facebook told me this in my chat box. Without letting my friend know that I now knew this! One more reason to love/hate the site.

]]> <![CDATA[Facebook Chat Is Only Good For Spreading STDs]]> I just figured out how to turn off the chat function. Now I can type in peace and enjoy my smug superiority without any interruptions.

And let me guess--there's no such thing as Virtual Valtrex.

]]> <![CDATA[Facebook Chat Is Only Good For Spreading STDs]]> Bravo. I hate that facebook is still pretending people use it for friends instead of as a schadenfreude generator.

I also being reminded of people who I know but do not like in that little pop up window--they are like the people who you see all the time and know that you don't like, but keep popping up because you hare 37 mutual friends.

I have no use or time for FB, but your comments are nonetheless amusing and dovetail with my own thoughts on social networking sites in general and FB in particular.

]]> <![CDATA[Facebook Chat Is Only Good For Spreading STDs]]> Be it Gchat, Instant Messenger, or Facebook chat, I hate IM of any variety. If you want to talk to me so badly, pick up the damn phone and call me.

@RocketRockit: Pieces of Flair is addictive.

]]> <![CDATA[Facebook Chat Is Only Good For Spreading STDs]]> This is way too advanced for me. I still poke chicks I want to have sex with.

FitnessMadeSimple

]]> <![CDATA[Facebook Chat Is Only Good For Spreading STDs]]> Turn off the chat and collect some damn Flair or something. I have like 200 Facebook friends and, so far, only 3 of them are available for chat on a regular basis. The others are off living or something bizarre like that.

]]> <![CDATA[Facebook Chat Is Only Good For Spreading STDs]]> If you don't already play scrabulous, add the app and that way if anyone sees you online, you're not looking at the lives of people you only tangentially know, but you're big into word games.

or just turn off the chat.

I was getting sex off of Facebook without the chat. I'd like the consider myself discreet in that respect. But the chat?

Le chat est pour la putain.

/canceled Facebook page. Got sick of being asked to share all my personal information in exchange for a virtual beer.
