Personal to personal. New Facebook Posts
Many Facebook users today received invitations to activate “new posts.” This topic did not pass by the hub , but for some reason many community members approached innovations very one-sidedly, having paid attention only to the facebook .com box.
In fact, much more interesting is hidden behind new messages.
“New Messages” is not email on the facebook .com domain, it is a number of major changes in the facebook messaging system.
At the moment, you can exchange messages through:
- web interface;
- chat;
- sms;
- mobile clients;
- post office.
What has changed:
- All correspondence (chat, sms, etc.) is stored in one “stream”.
Small icons indicate the source.
I think it's not worth talking about amenities. The bustle of customer histories is finally over.
- In one “stream” several people can communicate at the same time;
It is very convenient, during the month of testing messages this feature was used most often. If it is off, then it is much more convenient than a phone call. Created a "stream", added people, discussed.
The "stream" is stored separately, without mixing with tête-à-tête messages.
- You can reply to messages through mail;
- Email notifications have changed. History + userpics is shown.
Initially, mail correspondence came in the same form, but for some reason this option was turned off. Although it was very convenient ..
- There was an opportunity to duplicate the message on a mobile (only beeline is currently working in Russia);
Again, a very sensible idea. If something is urgent, then SMS will come and you can answer with a simple replay.
- Finally, the ability to communicate by email. Without filters, themes, shortcuts, subfolders, etc.
If the letter is not private, then it comes to the Others folder. Letters, as well as correspondence, are in one “stream”.
If a letter arrives from a friend, then it enters the “stream” with a one-on-one correspondence.
The mailbox is designed exclusively for personal correspondence, you should not look for a “Google killer” in it.
As an experiment, I filtered out all incoming personal gmail mail and redirected to facebook. Emotions are positive. 70 percent of active personal correspondence intersected with friends on facebook, so immediately got into their "flows". The remaining 30 communicate comfortably with me, no one noticed the change.
In my opinion, facebook has prepared an excellent foundation in order to become a user communication center. It doesn’t matter what you use, it’s important that you will always be in touch.
It is already more reliable to send a message to facebook than, for example, SMS. A message will be received one way or another and an opportunity for a response will be provided.
Very soon, we will not need to remember the phone numbers of friends and it does not matter where they are, facebook will do everything by himself.
All Zuckerberg :)
