The messages tab on Facebook hasn’t exactly been a prize-winning
feature but it seems that the site designers are finally taking note.
The social networking site, today announced that it would be upgrading how messages appear on
The new look will in fact make the messages tab look very similar to an email inbox. The two changes are:
• A side-by-side layout. The left hand side has a list of all the
recent conversations and messages, while the right has the entire
conversation, this being the one you’ve clicked on. Users now also have
the option of adding multiple photos and emoticons to their messages.

• Users can also search by a sender’s name or keyword from the main
messages view. Keyboard commands have also been added for easier
navigation. Users will be able to see the full list of available
shortcuts, by typing Alt+Q on a PC or Control+Q on a Mac.
This feature will be rolled out to users in the coming weeks.
