[OWW-Discuss] Facebook chat

[M. Yee]

If we do end up implementing something of this nature, I don't think it
should be enabled by default. Opting in would avoid some of the complaints
that Facebook is getting about these new applications just popping up out
of nowhere, with no clear way to disable the feature.

sidebar in GMail, you won’t need to install anything to get it working,
and you can also “pop-out” a chat window for any conversation you’re
having, allowing you to do other things within Facebook in the browser
window while carrying on your conversation unperturbed."

Login to your Facebook account and see it for yourself.  I think it
would be a great feature to have on OWW.
