Facebook , the most popular communication platform, has just announced an improvement to the internal messaging system, proving wrong those who had thought of a new stand alone email service in competition with GMail, 171 million users, Yahoo! Mail, 303 million or Windows Live Mail, 363 million ( for the record, yours truly was not among them ). Messages, used by 350 million Facebook users who exchange 4 billion messages every day, is renewed in 3 aspects: – Seamless messaging , i.e. the convergence of instant messages and structured messages. Messages becomes the place where all private messages received will be stored, regardless of their origin (SMS, chat IM, email). From today users will be able to have an address like vincenzo.cosenza@facebook.com if they have chosen a vanity url like facebook.com/vincenzo.cosenza.
By choosing this option we will give our friends an Brazil Phone Number alternative way to contact us. In practice, they can send us an email to the address indicated and we will receive the message in "Messages" (in the form of a notification or in the chat window if we are online). The element of greatest attention is that by giving non-members the possibility of writing an email to members, Facebook will also be able to collect the addresses of those who are not on the platform. – Conversation history or the possibility of consulting the history of conversations via SMS, IM, email from a single page, grouped by friend, and not by channel of origin, date or subject – Social Inbox which, thanks to particular automatic filters based on user behaviour, would allow the messages received to be better sorted. By default the new social mailbox will only contain messages from our friends and friends of friends, but the user can make the settings more restrictive. Messages from other contacts will end up in the “Other” folder.
Messages may also be selectively forwarded to others. Furthermore, it will be possible to add other people to a group conversation. It seems that Zuckerberg, for now, doesn't want to kill email, but improve the way Facebook users communicate with each other. But if these innovations really work, helping users fight spam and more effectively identify the most important messages, they could have a huge impact on how other email services function today.
