Are You Ready For The @facebook Mail? (FB Project Titan Update)
The mighty Facebook isn't really satisfied with the #1 position in the list of top visited sites in the USA. The big fat Facebook is now eating more from Google's tiffin box. Facebook wants all of you to abandon the clean, fast and simple Gmail and adopt the @Facebook.com address. Yes, Facebook has been secretly working on rewriting its core messaging product to offer a full featured email to all its 500+million users! Google - are you watching?
Facebook is already planning a new $450 million datacenter to host all the email. There's a news that Facebook will offer POP and most probably IMAP access to FB mail. If this happens, I'm sure Gmail will have sleepless nights. Now let's see how Facebook Mail will be a better product than Gmail -
1. Facebook mail will be integrated with your social profile.
2. Facebook will be able to do a better job of prioritizing your email than Gmail's Priority Mailbox feature.
3. They know what you like and what your interest are. So you'll be better served with the relevant ads in mailbox.
4. The users, themselves have provided all the data to Facebook; while Google has to collect that data from various means.
With this, all FB has to do is come up with a posh UI. Facebook will take fast leaps towards one-spot destination for everything - deals, payments, maps, photos & videos.
What do you think? What should we expect on Monday?
