Its Finally Here! XMPP for Facebook
Posted by Eion Robb in Uncategorized on 2010-02-11
There’s just been a blog post by the Facebook developers to say that they’re finally allowing XMPP on Facebook. Here’s the details:
- Create a new XMPP account in your favourite XMPP client, eg Adium or Pidgin
- Use your Facebook username in the ‘username’ field. If you don’t have a username get one at http://facebook.com/username
- Use ‘chat.facebook.com’ (without the quotes) in the ‘domain’ field
- Enter in your password
- Uncheck the Require SSL/TLS settings
- Check the ‘Allow plaintext auth over unencrypted streams’
You should be good to go 🙂
