Facebook for android adds messaging

[javajolt]

Facebook has released an updated Android client that adds one major new feature: messaging. You can now see messages from your inbox and send private messages to other users.

In order to launch the messaging feature, just hit the Inbox icon on the Facebook home screen. It replaces the “Take Photo” icon that had previously been there.

There’s still no support for Facebook Chat though.

You can download the updated version of Facebook for Android from the Android Market.
