For those of you who are rocking to the Windows Phone platform and cannot get enough of Facebook, here is some good news for you – Facebook Messenger for Windows Phone has finally arrived, where it will offer users the comfort of seeing Facebook’s familiar chat experience, albeit on a far smaller screen this time around compared to your desktop computer or notebook. Some of the features that will come with Facebook Messenger for Windows would include group conversations, photo sharing and stickers, of course. Do bear in mind, however, that there are some missing features in this particular first revision.
