Chat On Facebook Without Logging On

 
Want more ways to chat with your Facebook friends that don’t require you to be logged on to the social media site?

Israeli start-up Facemoods is launching a toolbar this week that allows you to have a chat window come up on any page you’re browsing (you don’t have to be logged on to Facebook).
Compatible with Google Chrome, Firefox, and Internet Explorer, the toolbar downloads for free here. As soon as you do that, you see a little Facebook chat icon at the top of the tool bar. Click on it and a new window appears, allowing you to insert an emoticon or animation in your chat, from any browser window.
Facemoods has a variety of emoticons to choose from—everything from a crying guy, to little piggies and cows, to celebrity emoticons (we think we spotted a Justin Bieber doppelganger), to a guy with his pants pulled down (ever wanted to moon someone on Facebook? Now you can).
The emotions and animations can appear both in chats, and can be inserted onto wall posts. The browser add-on works on both PCs and Macs, and you can select from about 12 different languages.
Also, check out Facemoods on Facebook — the page has more than 9 million likes, which proves its growth hasn’t slowed down since August when we wrote that it was one of the fastest growing pages on the social network.
Have you tried this toolbar yet and if so, what do you think of it?

4 Free Apps For Discovering Great Content On the Go

1. StumbleUpon The granddaddy of discovering random cool stuff online, StumbleUpon will celebrate its 10th anniversary later this year — but its mobile app is less than a year old. On the web, its eight million users have spent the last decade recommending (or disliking) millions of webpages with a thumbs up / thumbs down system on a specially installed browser bar. The StumbleUpon engine then passes on recommendations from users whose interests seem similar to yours. Hit the Stumble button and you’ll get a random page that the engine thinks you’ll like. The more you like or dislike its recommendations, the more these random pages will surprise and delight. Device : iPhone , iPad , Android 2. iReddit Reddit is a self-described social news website where users vote for their favorite stories, pictures or posts from other users, then argue vehemently over their meaning in the comments section. In recent years, it has gained readers as its competitor Digg has lost them.

‘Wireless’ humans could backbone new mobile networks

People could form the backbone of powerful new mobile internet networks by carrying wearable sensors. The sensors could create new ultra high bandwidth mobile internet infrastructures and reduce the density of mobile phone base stations.Engineers from Queen’s Institute of Electronics, Communications and Information Technology are working on a new project based on the rapidly developing science of body-centric communications.Social benefits could include vast improvements in mobile gaming and remote healthcare, along with new precision monitoring of athletes and real-time tactical training in team sports, an institute release said.The researchers are investigating how small sensors carried by members of the public, in items such as next generation smartphones, could communicate with each other to create potentially vast body-to-body networks.The new sensors would interact to transmit data, providing ‘anytime, anywhere’ mobile network connectivity.Simon Cotton from the i
