FaceBook is expected to launch an @facebook webmail service this coming Monday. Earlier this year the service/system was reported to be called Project Titan.
Invites have now gone out designed in the form of a letter hinting that Monday could be the day the email service is announced.
What this service would allow Facebook to do is use information from your friends to figure out which emails are most important to you. Also with it knowing your age, location and a number of other things about you, it could be used to target ads at you in the way of deals. Photos and popular events could also be easily integrated. With FaceBook having a lot of users, it certainly could use this information to target things and help you… both of which might or might not be a good thing.
We’ll hear more on Monday and let you know!
