Facebook Messenger helps you break the ice with strangers
Dealing with strangers is always a bit tense at first. technology and mobile applications sometimes make this easier if you don't have to give the face, but Facebook has found another much more useful and practical way: o provide public data of a contact before chatting Something that is not only useful for breaking the ice with strangers , but also to know in advance various data about that person.An issue that has been implemented in its messaging application Facebook Messenger and that is already beginning to reach different countries.
This is a feature that, at the moment, has only been activated in United States, France, United Kingdom and in India With her, users of Facebook Messenger receive a pinch of public profile information of that person who has been contacted by message. Strangers who sometimes want to contact us, either to make friends or for some commercial purpose or to carry out spam (). In this way the user will be able to assess who it is and if it is worth answering or it is better to block the conversation. A whole comfort to avoid abuses and misunderstandings
This information is just data from that user. Facebook Messenger collects data from that user's social network profile, as long as they are public and visiblefor anyone. Questions such as your dedication, the city where you currently reside, or from where it originates from Small details that the user has voluntarily disclosed and that are now automatically transferred to chats on Facebook Messengerwhen starting a conversation.
Of course this doesn't just affect users who have no relationship on Facebook, in which case this fact is shown along with the rest of the information. The profile data to start a conversation and find out who he is also appears with the friends of this social network That is, with whom you have a relationship in FacebookOf course, for this case to occur, both users must never have previously spoken through Facebook Messenger
Thereby, additional information appears next to the first message to know if it is a complete unknown (or not so much now that its known origin or job), or if he is an old friend from school who is followed on the social network but with who had no direct contact, for example. In any case, hints of information that can promote more fluid and comfortable communication, avoiding answering complete strangers or finding useful pieces of information to break the ice and hold a conversation more comfortably than from a simple “hello”.
For now we will have to wait to see how users react to this new feature in the markets where it has been implemented, no date yet to find out when it will be released Spain. One more step by Facebook to try to create new relationships and focusing on privacy and previous information before having contact, as it has already demonstrated with the launch of the app Hello which displays caller information before answering.
