We just released the next version of the Facebook Dashboard extension for Chrome. This update brings a fix to the badge counter, notifications, and a message center overhaul.

Feature List
• Badge Counter fixed and they now rotate to show counts of new notifications, messages, and friend activity.
• Notifications count and list added.
• Message center has been redesigned to account for the notifications list and message counts.
• New notifications and friend activity are slightly tinted blue when first viewed.
• International character read-back support added.
• Manual refresh button added.

Note: We looked into international character posting support and found that while we can post the characters through by encoding them, Facebook is not decoding the characters on the other side. This means that if you post a non-English character through Facebook’s API, it will come out looking like gibberish on the other side. This is a documented bug that affects all developers. Once it gets cleared up, we will implement posting support in the extension.
