As soon as I installed TweetDeck and started getting around the feature rich interface, I noticed this limitation. There was no support for notifications on Facebook, while notifications actually power what you do there. I looked up online, and found that a lot of people were angry about this.
But now, after Chrome webapps are here, I tried out TweetDeck for Chrome, because I had found the desktop program pretty interesting. And I found instantly that it gets you your notifications.
When you install TweetDeck on Chrome, you'll find that the program has a more simplistic and slicker look. It loads up a lot faster than the desktop equivalent and does pretty much everything that you'd expect its elder brother to do. But here, when you browse columns, you find that there is a notifications column under the Facebook section.
I hope that this feature will soon make its way onto the desktop version. Actually, you should be expecting this anytime.
