Facebook has partnered with Airtel & Reliance Communications to offer free or discounted access to the Facebook messenger. Under this partnership, the telecom network providers will have a special data plan for Facebook messenger.
With the messaging now costing lesser money than earlier and having all their contacts on Facebook, I think the service that will take a biggest blow by this move from Facebook is WhatsApp - a similar messaging service that relies only on data plan and eliminates the SMS costs.
This is not the first time Facebook's done the trick. It had offered #-Link-Snipped-# for new friend referrals.
Would be interesting to see how Whatsapp responds.
