How to Download Facebook Messenger
While social networking is fun, there are times when you just don't want to keep your Facebook profile open so you can continue your conversations on Facebook Chat, the site's embedded instant messaging client. With Facebook Messenger for Windows, keeping your chat going right on your PC desktop is now as easy as ever.
Simply install the program software to your computer and you can send instant messages, get instant access to new inbox messages, see real-time updates and activities from your contacts and more.
