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.
ok it's nice to meet you all
