S7: Facebook Vs Emails

Usually we will compare the old social network provider to the new one such as friendster, hi5, etc. But what if facebook(FB) replaces the email world? After all it can do so much than just providing message sending and quick chats. In enable you to understand the other person better. Several big companies may not agree to use FB in their working environment as it might distract their employees completing their daily workload. But some companies, has been allowing FB to be accessed. They may have overlooked the 'distraction' that it can offer but FB may have been a good choice to promote a product or notifying a person about something.

With the current messaging tools in FB, it works similarly like Gmail's email function as it merge messages coming from the same sender. They are also able to send the message to many receiver at one go. So, basically everything that the email providers are providing, FB has it as well. It might not look as formal as it seemed from the email providers but it offers the same functions. Companies should think twice about banning FB in their offices as it may be a very important tool for everyone in future as it is what advertisers are already focusing on.
