Last week, I mentioned how there was a beta version of Adium that suported Facebook chat.  Well, that version is beta no more.  In addition to the support for Facebook, there is also a redesigned Contact Inspector (it used to be called Get Info), a Contact List search box is newly available, and there are many performance and compatibility updates.  Current Adium users can just go to “Check for Updates…” and get the newest version directly.  Of course, you can always download it from the Adium website.  This new version is an improvement over the old version with no downsides, therefore I have no reservations giving it our new Seal of Approval.

Read on after the break to find out more about Picasa2.
