Social River Displays Your Facebook Friends’ Latest Status Updates on Desktop1 min read

Social River is a freeware Adobe AIR-based application that keep you updated with the latest activities and status messages of your friends in Facebook, directly from your Windows desktop.

If you are a Facebook addict who regularly check for the latest activities on your Facebook page, this is just the right application for you. At least, it’s save you the trouble to login into your Facebook account from your web browser, because using Social River, you can read the latest updates on Facebook from your desktop. 🙂

Social River is easy to setup. On the first run, you are required to login to your Facebook account through this application and authenticate this application to use your profile.

Social River sits above your Windows 7 taskbar and displays your Facebook friends’ latest status updates (within the past one hour) in a flow from right to left. If you want to, you can dock the flow on the side or top of your desktop.

If you want to get more details on a particular status message, simply click on the status message and a pop-up window will appear with more details on the status. From the pop-up window, you can leave comment, like or share the status message, directly from your desktop.

Social River can be minimized to the system tray. Even in the minimize mode, you can still be notified with the latest status updates. Whenever there is new activity in your Facebook account, an instant pop-up message window will appear at the top of your system tray. Thanks, Nirmal!
