Just a quick post to mention a Mac app I have personally been using & recommending over the last couple of weeks. It’s called photobook and essentially it allows you to easily browse & import your friends photo albums from facebook into your iphoto.
The app is called PhotoBook, made by Caffeinated Cocoa , and although they promote key features such as slideshows and as-you-type search…the best feature is the ability to import entire albums into iphoto with just the click of a button, ok two buttons – select all & ‘add to iphoto’.

To give you an example of the ideal time you could use the app…Say you & a bunch of your friends attended a wedding. Actually, let’s take it a step further – its’ YOUR wedding and you want every single photo from the beautiful day. A week or so after the big day, your friends upload their photos – you login to photobook & in a matter of minutes you’ve got all their photos sitting in your iphoto. The only downside…they’re not high-res but that’s hardly PhotoBook’s problem.

Oh, and one final point before I show you a couple of screenshots – it costs nothing, nada, zilch (at the moment) and you can download it here.
