Silverlight 4 Facebook Client Released for Windows and Mac

Microsoft has just released Silverlight 4 based facebook client for both Windows and Mac OS X. Back in April last year, Microsoft showed off a proof of concept facebook client which was made using facebook’s Open Stream API on Silverlight but unfortunately that never saw the light of the day. After a long wait, they have finally released a fully working client for users running Windows and OS X – with full capability to run it out-of-the browser
Some of the features of the client are as follows:



Out-of-browser support

Hosting HTML content interactively

Local Device access (webcam)

Rich-Text control

Embedding alternative media content (i.e., YouTube)

Desktop notifications

COM integration (with Outlook) on the Windows platform

Right-click

Drag-n-drop

Window control

Animations
