There is a new desktop application in the works that is going to integrate an instant messenger application with the Facebook platform. This is pretty slick. The application will display all of your friends and allow video chat, video messaging, and more. Airwaves is a combination of Adobe’s AIR (previously Apollo) and the Yahoo! Messenger Vista client. While there has been much discussion throughout the blogosphere already, I couldn’t help but comment on it. This is what I always expected of an instant messaging client. I have always theorized about an instant messaging application that gives you access to all of your friend’s profiles, pictures, videos, and friends directly from the application itself. Having access to all of your contacts and their self-expressive media from one simple application would be a revolution in communications. The upcoming Trillian Astra is a perfect example of such an application. It integrates your MySpace (not Facebook …. boo!) IM account, personal profiles, widget plugins, web chat, and more! While the AirWaves applications looks like a far cry from the Trillian Astra (especially since one developer is working on it), it is a step in the right direction. I will be interested to see how this one turns out.

I would do a bit more research.
“It integrates your MySpace (not Facebook …. boo!) IM account”
There is, indeed, a plugin, made by outside, for Trillian for facebook. A google search will yield it, or you could try the Trillian plugin list on the CS web-site. Might even work with Trillian Pro (so, all Trillites could use it this very minute!).

This group is a petition to Facebook to support open-source protocol XMPP. This protocol will enable users to use Facebook chat with clients that support Jabber (eg. Adium, Pidgin).
Join this group to support the cause.

FaceBook chat is supported through the official FaceBook Trillian plugin. You just have to go in the settings and turn it on. Settings -> Miscellaneous -> Connect to FaceBook Chat
