Facebook Friday: Is Facebook Email Headed Our Way?
By
It’s Facebook Friday here at Sawmill, so isn’t it convenient that we’re hearing rumors today about a big Facebook announcement coming Monday.
If the investigative bloggers and re-tweeters are correct, we’ll soon have access to Facebook email addresses. What impact will a Facebook email service have on Gmail, Yahoo, Hotmail and AOL? We’ll soon find out. For me, buzz@facebook.com has a nice ring to it!
Update: On Monday, Nov. 15, Facebook founder Mark Zuckerburg announced details of what he called a “modern messaging system” that combines all of your messages (text, SMS, email) into a single conversation history and “social in-box” that filters and presents only the messages you want to see from the people you want to hear from. You can read all the details on the Facebook blog.
