Whilst you may desire the convenience of a Facebook program for chatting, it’s not always desirable to install a software application on your computer. Particularly, when using older computers, installing additional software is likely to slow them down. Indeed, having an application that you rarely use installed on your computer running at start up may cause more grief than solution.
Alternatively, you could for example, find yourself at an internet cafe or be on a work computer where you are unable to install software applications.
