Get Back Old Facebook Chat Layout to View Only Online Friends.

Many Facebook user reacted in different way for new facebook chat layout, they dont want t0 search who is online in there friendlist, they just want to see who is online rite now .Here’s few advantage and disadvantage of New Fb Chat layout.

• Cant see all of my online friends,Waste of time guessing who is online.
• People shown is not in groups ,Always pops up when “open in new tab“
• Better to show who is online not the one who is offline.
• Common sense that if your friend is offline it is not chat. So you can browse/Search your friend that is not online and make a message.
• The new Facebook chat has room only to show 30 contacts. There is no scroll bar for the new chat, so if you have over 30 people online, you cannot see them all. To make it worse, Fb chat now shows people who are not even online. This takes up many of the 30 precious spaces!
• Only thing i like for new chat is the search for a friend and sending message when they are offline.
