Another sweet revenge from Facebook. The Facebook Mail!

The latest buzz in the internet world is about the upcoming Facebook email service.At a Monday event at company headquarters in Palo Alto, Calif., social-networking giant Facebook unveiled a messaging service to compete directly against Google's Gmail product -- allegedly referred to inside Facebook as a "Gmail killer." But it's not what you might think, said company chief Mark Zuckerberg.

"We don't think a modern messaging service is going to be e-mail," Zuckerberg said, explaining that his company's new service is modelled more after chat than after a straight e-mail client. One of the e-mail's key flaws, after all, is that it's not real time. And messaging needs to be immediate, he said.

"I'm not saying you need to send an e-mail and it shows up at the speed of light," Zuckerberg clarified, but the speed of instant messaging or text messages on cell phones is dramatically different from e-mails."We can do better," Zuckerberg said. Long live his dreams.
While the new product will incorporate @facebook.com e-mail addresses, Zuckerberg said it will be more than just Gmail competition. It will offer three key features other e-mail services lack: seamless messaging across a variety of platforms, including SMS and texting; conversation history across those platforms; and a "social in-box," meaning the company can filter the in-box just to include messages from friends.

But seeing all these brilliant steps, the death of Orkut is obvious and hit to G-Mail is coincidental. Thus Google is going to have sleepless nights working on antidotes. Hope the web giant Google will come up with better options to magnetize its users. Whatever happens, its gonna be a good time for the users. They'll get better and better options thus making their internet life easier and comfortable.
