Seesmic Announces Desktop Facebook Client

I know a lot of you swear by TweetDeck for Twitter and even Facebook status management. Personally, I use Twhirl because I can so easily work with multiple twitter accounts.

Seesmic, developers of Twhirl, are now offering a Facebook desktop client that is really similar to Twhirl in how it functions.

It just pulls down status updates though. You’re not getting the posted links, notes, photos and so on. You also don’t get the options for like and comment.  If you notice at the bottom of the screenshot, this is a Preview Version. It seems as if they have more up their sleeves and just wanted to be able to announce this at SxSW.

The Seesmic team is already hard at work at integrating this with Twhirl, which makes me happy. I’m not sure I can handle yet another item on my desktop. Especially since I can’t figure out how to turn off the sound.
