Facebook has announced that they are using the Jabber/XMPP protocol on Facebook Chat. This means that we can use the IM client to chat. Actually, it has been published since 2008 in a note written by a Facebook engineer, and in February 2010 ago Facebook announced that Facebook Chat with Jabber/XMPP protocol was ready to serve Facebook users around the world.
To set up your IM client or Pidgin, you will need a little configuration. I use Pidgin in this instance, please adjust these parameters with your IM client.
1. Go to “Accounts” and select “Manage Accounts.”
2. On the Basic tab
Enter the following info:
Protocol: XMPP
Username: [your Facebook username, check your account setting]
Domain: chat.facebook.com
Resource: Pidgin
Password: [your Facebook password]
Local alias: [your name]
3. Click the Advanced tab
Enter the following info:
Connect server: chat.facebook.com
(Uncheck the box labeled “Require SSL / TLS”)
Ok, that’s it. You can chat with your friends with an IM client.
