Fishbowl is a desktop application that brings your new ways Facebook experiences. The purpose is almost same from previous application that I wrote before but it is more powerful, more friendly and more enjoyable. Lets take a loot at my review using this application.

Awesome Home and Profile page
Fishbowl tries to design its home and profile page same like Facebook has but gives more style for photos. You can still give comment and give like status for your friends status from here. You can do zoom in and zoom out in home page by click “plus” and “minus” button at upper right corner.

But not all Facebook functions are integrated in Fishbowl such as Inbox message. If you want to see your new message, Fishbowl will open Facebook website in it then you can see your messages there. Anyway, it is still worth to use this application for your everyday Facebooking activities.
