I am quite unsure if the new Facebook e-mail system has reached all its users at the same time but what I am definite of is that the @facebook.com e-mail address has opened up to its Swedish users today, 04 March 2011.
Update: A Facebook friend has just told me that this feature's been around in the Philippines since December 2010. Again, Sweden's late when it comes to updates like this. [Thanks Chrystian for the info]
The social networking giant, Facebook, has announced their up and coming own @facebook.com e-mail address some time in November 2010 and three months and three weeks later, here it is:
Facebook users have the choice to activate or not their own @facebook.com e-mail. So, that's something you do not need to worry about if you do not like the idea of having another e-mail add.
For those who are interested to try the new Facebook e-mail feature, you will be asked to activate your facebook e-mail add. Facebook users who have created their own Facebook public username name, your e-mail add will automatically match it. For example:
For those who haven't set their public username [if your username still ends in a series of numbers, for example: http://www.facebook.com/profile.php?id=1234567890] you will be asked to choose your own e-mail identity.
Another great thing worth checking out in this new e-mailing system of Facebook is the improved chat tool. Chat messages will appear on both your Facebook e-mail inbox and the chat box. Now, you do not need to chat with friends using the tiny chat box *whew!*. All you have to do is to click the enlarge button [see that right arrow on the pic below?] or click on the chat message on your in box and you'll have a better and larger chat box [refer to the next pic].

You can also attach a file, a video or a photo to your chat conversations. Pretty, huh?
So there you go. The new and better Facebook e-mail. Have a great Facebooking day everyone!

ReplyDeleteBTW, I was going over my commenter's list and I've noticed you don't have a gravatar like the one you have at JS Kit. May I ask if it's possible for you to register yourself at Gravatar with an image that is tied in with the usual email address that you always use when leaving comments at Blogs. Please hurry over to http://www.gravatar.com with any image of your choice that measures 80 x 80 px to be uploaded at Gravatar's website for universal registration of your personal Gravatar. I will appreciate it very much, Pretty Maxi,
Thank you. Mwah!
Thank you for dropping by and sharing some love! You're lovely!
