Hi all

I bring to you news that I got Facebook Chat working in both Windows and now on 
the Mac. On Windows, I use Instantbird and set up Facebook Chat with its native 
support. On the Mac, I set up a Messages account, using Jabba as the account 
type after selecting "other messages account", use usern...@chat.facebook.com 
for example
christopher.hallswor...@chat.facebook.com
enter my Facebook password and the rest can be left alone. It was so simple to 
set up I could have kicked myself *smile*.
Here are the exact instructions for the Mac only; Windows users may skip this.
1. Open Messages.
2. Press command-comma (,) too open Preferences.
3. Interact with the toolbar, click accounts, stop interacting, interact with 
the account controls group, click add account and stop interacting.
4. Select other messages account radio button and click continue.
5. In the account type popup button, choose Jabba.
6. Enter your Facebook username and password as shown in the example above.
Note
Don't know your Facebook username or haven't got one yet? Go to
www.facebook.com/username
log in if prompted and you can either create one or learn what your username is.
The rest of the settings can be left alone, and it should just work like 
anything else on the Mac.
Happy chatting!
