You like WhatsApp....., no u like facebook messenger and you have no choice....


On Wednesday, Facebook bought WhatsApp for $19 billion. This amount of money is too big even for Facebook. But the question is why did they bought WhatsApp when they already have a messenger name
Facebook Messenger. Facebook invested lots in their Facebook home launcher and even built a dedicated app for messaging. Its look like Mark Zuckerberg CEO of Facebook wants to buy everything that is popular in the world. In 2012, Facebook Bought Instagram for $1 billion.



Some experts are saying it was a very risky move but same are saying it was a bold move of Facebook. WhatsApp is a messaging app that uses data connection (internet) to exchange text, audio, video clip, images with other users. You can use WhatsApp free for one years after that $1 every year. WhatsApp has currently 450 million active users out of which more than 315 million is using WhatsApp on daily bases. WhatsApp also adding 1 million users every day, yes!! Every day and that 1 million figure is also true.



Facebook is expecting to make big money out of WhatsApp. But what will happen to Facebook messenger, will it eat dust or Facebook will integrate it with WhatsApp. And if it does, do we still have the same, simple and user-friendly WhatsApp that we all know and can’t live without Or will it be another stunt to improve Facebook Messenger which will also let WhatsApp down. These are the question that only time will answer.
