  Pros

  -Quick and easy way to connect to all of your Facebook friends. -Notifications through growl work seemingly well. -Easily access your friends profiles, send messages, and view photos.

  Cons

  -No option to update your status from inside the application. -No ability to check messages from inside the application.

  Summary

  The software runs pretty smoothly, but a main feature that should be added is the ability to update your Facebook status from inside the application.

  This review was originally posted on VersionTracker.com.<br />Hey People, I played around with MacFace and then with the early version of Amigo...they gave me a bunch of problems that I won't get into....but 1.2.0 has been completely problem free right from the download! Waaaay better. Anyone who uses Facebook and Apple computers, this application is for you!!! Apple Gurl

  Summary

  This review was originally posted on VersionTracker.com.<br />Well, from bad to worse... since FMenu was broken by Leopard and is hurtling like a glacier towards Leopard compatibility, I decided to give this little masterpiece a go. Needless to say, I want my hour back, don't even be thinking about springing your twenty five bucks for it. The set-up process involves what appears to be a separate application, which asks for the location of Mac Face, the now non-existent predecessor of this app, and requires a convoluted registration process that adds an app to Facebook itself. Once that's done, the helper app closes down but Amigo itself doesn't appear in the menu bar. Re-launching from the applications folder takes you back to the setup app. So no testing notes available on this app, I didn't even get as far as the app showing any signs of functionality. Pity, the website trumpets what appears to be a useful set of features and clean interface and, in the absence of a freeware alternative, might have been worth stumping some cash for. But save it for now. One star for taking a promising idea, implementing it poorly and charging too much. Wait for FMenu to be fixed.
