I think its nothing Facebook can do about. The browser has to support notifications to the desktop from websites. I think Google implemented this for GMail but it is only supported in the unstable/beta Google Chrome builds. I think they also intend to push this change as something that all browsers should support. That said, you can use the facebook plugin for pidgin or empathy to integrate Facebook notifications and chat with your desktop very trivially. Hope this helps. :) -- Suvayu Open source is the future.
