In 2011, Facebook updated its way of allowing its users to individually message their friends without their other friends knowing it. Now, the users of Facebook can use an updated messaging system. It is called Facebook Messenger. The users of Facebook can contact their friends who are “friends” of their account and message them through Facebook Messenger.
Since people can send videos, photos and files besides messages, it is functional in many ways for people. They may only want to send a message to one friend and not let everyone in their friends list to see what they are typing. The success of Messenger can be shown through their growth. It has grown by doubling into the billions in 2017 from 2015.
