If You Do Not Have Facebook Messenger You will very soon

 
Those of you that rely on the Facebook app for your chats won’t be able to much longer if Facebook follows through on their plan. Facebook has notified users in a few European countries that messaging friends in the Facebook app will stop in about 2 weeks. Users will still be able to message their friends, but they will have to download and install the Facebook Messenger app in order to do so.

This doesn’t appear to be a “test” and is the long term plan for Facebook. You can expect this change to hit every country, but there are a few caveats. Those with lower-end Android devices won’t be required to use Messenger. Also, for whatever reason, Windows phone users will still be able to see messages in the Facebook app. Finally, the Paper newsreader app (not on Android yet) will still show messages.


So what do you guys think? I personally don’t use Facebook much anymore, and the few people that do message me on it, I am happy to get them from the main app. Now I have to install another app in order to get these few messages, which is a pain. On the other hand, I do understand Facebook’s direction and they certainly don’t need to cater to part time users like myself.

How to Completely Backup your Samsung Galaxy Note 2 using Kies, Helium, or the Note 2 Toolkit An average of 140,000 hard drives crash in the United States each week, according to online backup service Mozy. Additionally, 70 percent of Americans have lost a laptop, smartphone, or tablet, and the average person now loses 1.24 devices each year—less than half of which are ever recovered. Unfortunately, the statistics are way worse for me. My laptop is currently in the shop due to a hard drive failure, and I don't have enough hands to count the times I've had all the information wiped from my smartphone. This is why backing up your data is important. Trust me. Contacts, pictures, videos, notes, saved game data—all gone—if you don't back up your shit.
