We now need a comment from one of the Xobni team for completeness. Brezina? Adam? Gabor?

Email me instead was just a weekend hack. I made it because I was sick of getting "you have a message" emails. This update from FB doesn't change that.

The only thing that annoys me is that they ask for comments on their blog, but they don't publish them. Is it even a blog then?

None of the above (but still what you asked for)!

FTFA: "Now you can enter a friend's email address into the To: line ..."

Uh oh, Facebook just reinvented SNDMSG ( http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/SNDMSG ). I'm shaking in my boots! :)

I'll definitely still use "Email me instead".
