Facebook Desktop Chat


Ever tried to Connect Facebook Chat with your Desktop Chat Client - here is the easy way..


I am using Pidgin 2.6.2 as my Desktop Chat client - where I configured multiple Yahoo Accounts, MSN Accounts and Gtalk Accounts. Now, Let me show you how I configured Facebook Chat ..


Start your instant message program and locate the menu where you can add a new account (usually in preferences or settings).


Create a new account by entering the following info:


Protocol: XMPP or Jabber

Username: [your username]

Domain: chat.facebook.com

Jabber ID: [username]@chat.facebook.com

Password: <your Facebook password>


Enter the following server info, as requested:


Port: 5222

Server: chat.facebook.com

Use SSL/TLS: no

Allow plaintext authentication: no
