FaceBook has better messaging and new iPhone web site

Posted on August 21, 2007 at 8:26 am

FaceBook continues to add an arsenal of tools to it’s growing list of communication capabilities, now for the first time allowing messages to be sent through FaceBook to any email addresses and the creation of a new web site designed specifically for the iPhone.

If you’re always on FaceBook, you might find it to be a pain that you can only send messages to friends already on FaceBook and no one else. This makes it hard to communicate with those who either refuse to join or who are simply too lazy! Put if you like to communicate through one medium, you’ll be happy to know that FaceBook now allows you to send messages to people not on FaceBook. When you go to send a message or share an album, simply type in the person’s email address and your friends will be able to reply or see your albums WITHOUT having to join FaceBook!

To send a message in FaceBook, click on your Inbox at the top and click on Compose Message at the top right. Also, once you send a message to an email address, it will be added to your “friend selector list”, so that next time you only have to type in the first few characters to get the address. If you send a message to the email address of someone who is already signed up for FaceBook, it will automatically be routed to their FaceBook Inbox.

You can also invite friends to groups and events by using email addresses. They can RSVP without signing up, but they’ll won’t be able to post on discussion boards or write Wall posts.

The second cool thing is the release of the iPhone FaceBook web site where you can now easily stay connected to your friends right on your iPhone! The site looks wonderful on the screen and allows you to search for with just a few clicks and make calls to your friends directly from their profiles! Now you can constantly update your status as you carry your phone around with you.

 

The web address is iphone.facebook.com. Of course, if you don’ have an iPhone, but still want to use FaceBook on your mobile phone, you can visit their original mobile web site at m.facebook.com.

Enjoy!
