Facebook on Windows Media Center

If you a Facebook user and want to get all that social content on to
the TV then Martin Thornalley may have the answer for you. He is
developing a new application for Vista Media Center called Photato that
brings Facebook to the 10 foot interface. The project is in the early
stages at the moment and a beta should be starting later in July. From
looking at the screen shots the application has got very nice and
unique design, it’s interesting to see that Martin has gone his own way
on the UI and not follow other developers that are keeping their apps
looking like the rest of Media Center and I think in this case Martin
is on the right track.

More details from Martin when his website launches (the site is not up yet)

    It is so refreshing to see something that isn’t following the Media Center UI look and feel – excellent Idea for an application and I am looking forward to getting my hands on a copy!

    keep up the good work
