Facebook's recently released messaging application, Facebook Messenger, is now available to download overseas. The free application is a dedicated messaging app, which allows users to access their Facebook Messages and Facebook Chat on an iPhone or iPod touch, and receive push notifications when a new message is sent to them.
I've been using the application for some time now, and like it. If you're looking for an online, free messaging application to use on your iPhone, Facebook is the one service most people are connected to - this application offers an elegant means of sending and receiving Facebook Messages on an iPhone handset, and is not unlike the built-in Messages app itself.
As outlined in the app's release notes, features of Facebook Messenger include:
