In a double whammy announcement, we have Rocketboom now available on Facebook, by way of its branded Splashcast player.

Now you can watch Rocketboom every day, directly on your Facebook profile. A Splashcast player shows on your profile, as well as on its main application page. Splashcast has indicated that this is the first of many branded Splashcast players, and plans to have more on Facebook.

Saki, the web and mobile browser and IM service, has also created a Facebook application, letting you chat with friends, read RSS feeds, send and receive messages and view others' profiles, among other things. You can open this application in a new screen if you'd like to continue to chat with friends without remaining on one screen in Facebook. Saki won't display a chat screen on your actual profile, as Meebo does, but has several additional browsing features with its full service window.

A Skype Facebook application has been created by the same folks that made the Pay Me Facebook application--this one is called Skype Me. This one does the obvious, letting others ping you via Skype. You can see which of your friends have added this application as well. It's not quite as seamless as most other Facebook applications, and you'll have to already have a Skype account in order to add this one to your profile. Most of the funtions within this application will navigate you off of Facebook.
