What I will be doing over the summer is implementing a desktop widget (one that is a bit more useful than the existing desktop widget) and messaging support. Any suggestions to this are welcome :-)

I guess that's it... *wave to everyone*
Welcome ! Cats and ducklings together sometimes can be a "diferent" experience...

Thanks for the help in this and hope you have fun while at it !

w00t found something that might interest you (or maybe not but still !)

I installed ubuntu a couple of days ago on a spare laptop just to check out the 10.04 release (using mostly Gentoo/Slackware/Debian on my other box's but i like to keep up with stuff) and with it came a nice social agregator that does display a good Facebook feed, it's called Gwibber, i didn't check dependencies or any real important stuff but still found it a great app to be ported (or atleast a great source for code inspiration you could probably use in Facebrick) for our social networks needs...

I'd give it a peak or atleast see what they use for fetching info since they can displaye a pretty nice feed showing most of the things people post.

I don't use Facebrick alot usually just go for the full website, i use Facebrick mostly to update my status in a quick way, but improvements are always welcome !
