Facebook is building a Jabber/XMPP interface for Facebook Chat, which means users can access their Facebook friends list from other instant messaging clients such as Trillian, Apple's iChat or Pandion, not just the Facebook website. [Facebook Developers' Feed]
Now you can ignore your Facebook "friends" in Trillian, too

Digsby is what Trillian should have been, and it's only in beta. They had Facebook chat for a few weeks, but it stopped working yesterday (probably because of this announcement). Today they said they would have a new version out soon to comply with these changes.
Finally Facebook does something that makes sense!
Has Hell frozen over or something?
I'm a diehard Trillian fan but am getting a little impatient with the length of the alpha phase for its newest incarnation, Astra. Love it so far, but I'm going to check out Digsby (thanks @tvgm2).
@tvgm2: I couldn't have said it better.
