300MB memory heap for a messenger..uses "a" web browser...to implement itself.
It appears to come with an implementation of the chrome browser.
Apparently it also creates an open TCP socket for this? Even though its on the local loopback interface, it seems un-necessary.
The .desktop file is also a poor implementation, it needs editing to be recognized by lxpanel....
If you like your facebook messenger to use 300mb of memory this is a great idea (:
Its on github, and here http://messengerfordesktop.com/
