Facebook for Pokki

Pokki is a reliable start menu that provides you with quick access to your installed programs, your folders and your shortcuts. What sets it apart from other similar apps is the fact that its functionality can be enhanced by installing dedicated add-on, such as Facebook for Pokki.

Taskbar notifications for Facebook

In order to enjoy the features of this utility, you first need to install Pokki, and only afterwards should you download and setup its Facebook addon.
You will be required to specify your username and password, and it is advisable to set the app to remember your credentials, to make sure you will not need to enter them again in the future (needless to say, if you are working on a shared computer, you should never leave your account logged into any browser, no matter if it is your Facebook, Twitter, Reddit, or any other type of account).
Once you have logged in, all your Facebook notifications will be displayed in your taskbar, so you will not need to actually access your account when you want to view how many friend requests, messages and notifications you have.

Straightforward Facebook client

Besides displaying taskbar notifications, Facebook for Pokki supports all the actions you could otherwise perform when using a browser. You will be able to comment on your friends’ photos or post messages on their so-called wall, as well as browse through the status messages of all your buddies.
Additionally, you can start chatting with your online friends, as well as modify your cover image or your profile photo to your liking.

Conclusion

All in all, Facebook for Pokki can be a great addition to your Pokki start menu, especially if you like to be up-to-date with all your Facebook notifications and messages. However, its feature-set is limited to the one provided by the web interface, so you will not be able to create multiple new albums or automatically tag your friends in your pictures.
