No, Facebook does not have a REAL IM. It uses hacky web ajax, so it's not realtime, nor persistant. The d2jsp IM is a real time IM that uses a persistant connection. FB's method is extremely intrusive on network connectivity, and a HUGE waste of bandwidth and resources to accomplish "fake" IM capabilities.
Additionally, there is no way to make a browser "blink". Read the site announcement, a standalone downloadable client will eventually be available for various platforms.
