FacebookDiscovery brings messenger-style Facebook ChatFacebook Chat has virtually destroyed the conventional IM. No matter how hard GTalk, Yahoo! Messenger and Windows Live Messenger try to please the users, their era is coming to an end. However, I am sure most of us miss the actual ‘IM-feel’ in Facebook Chat. Not anymore.
