Facebook recently opened it’s API for third party developers to access it’s core features and customize them. In response to this, Microsoft came a Facebook desktop with a great and elegant black theme. This works with a new Silverlight 4 Beta available with Mac and Windows platform.
Here is how it looks, when you authorize it with a valid username and password…
