Facebook wants to mash up all of your communications, including text messages, emails, instant-message chats and Facebook messages—into one big ever-present message stream. And oh, by the way, it’s out to abolish email staples like subject lines and “bcc:ed” addressees along the way.
Facebook’s philosophy says that you care more about your friends than anything else—that you want to get communications from them instantly, and check everything else once or twice a day. Specifically, the approach argues that you want to keep in touch with friends through a unified system that pulls text messages, chats, and emails together and delivers them together wherever you happen to be at the moment. If you’re on the go, that means alerts on your phone. If you’re signed on to Facebook on the Web, that means a chat window.
