Facebook launched a mobile messaging application for Apple\u2019s iPhone and Android devices. Facebook engineer Lucy Zhang said Facebook Messenger can be used to exchange messages not only with Facebook friends but also with other people in a user\u2019s telephone contact list. Zhang, in a blog post, highlighted Messenger\u2019s group messaging capability. <\/p>\n

\u201cWhen you\u2019re on the go, coordinating a bunch of people can be tricky, especially if plans change at the last minute,\u201d she said. \u201cWith Messenger, you can quickly start a group conversation and message everyone at once.\u201d<\/p>\n

Facebook said Messenger also has location-and photo-sharing features. \u201cIf you choose to add your location, the people you\u2019re messaging with can easily find each other on the map,\u201d Zhang said. \u201cYou can also attach photos, so everyone else can see and comment on what you\u2019re looking at.\u201d Messenger integrates text messages, instant messages and emails. Zhang is a co-founder of Beluga, a startup founded by former Google employees that allows users to send group messages to family or friends. Facebook acquired Beluga in March.<\/p>\n
