Falling for mobile chat apps


“WHOA, what happened to Facebook messenger and why does it feel like I’m talking to you on my iChat?” That was the first thing my friend told me few weeks ago when we were chatting on Facebook (not during working hours ... of course).

Over the past few months, I’ve noticed few subtle changes to Facebook’s messaging service, especially for its mobile app, from being alerted to incoming messages via a floating bubble of your friend’s profile picture, (on a sidenote, I think flicking my friends floating profile picture around my mobile screen is more amusing than candy crush) to cuter animated emoticons.
