Facebook Messenger Has 1.2 Billion Users

Time certainly flies. Seems like it was just yesterday that Facebook Messenger was launched as a standalone app. Facebook users were encouraged to download it to keep in touch with their friends and family. Now it goes without saying that you would want it.

Messenger has come a long way since those early days. It has picked up hundreds of millions of users along the way. The actually number is 1.2 billion.

This is a huge milestone for the company since this means that Facebook Messenger is now as big as WhatsApp, another cross-platform messaging app that’s owned by Facebook. Both allow you to do the same thing, and there are countless users out there who have both the WhatsApp and Messenger apps on their smartphones.

Obviously Facebook made the right call when it decided to take the built-in messaging feature of its app and dish it out back in 2014. They can look back and be proud. Even Facebook’s main app is closing in on the 2 billion user mark.It currently sits at 1.9 billion. Instagram has a lot of catching up to do before it hits the one billion milestone since it’s currently at 600 million users. You never know, it may hit that mark soon.

Microsoft will reveal Project Scorpio Xbox console details at E3 on June 11

Microsoft just sent out invites to members of the media for its big reveal of Xbox Project Scorpio, the upgraded console that will be the “first true 4K console for gamers” according to the company. We’ve long expected E3’s press event to be the big consumer debut for Scorpio, but Microsoft spelled out that it will indeed be the star of the show in a blog post on Thursday.

The E3 press event will happen on Sunday, June 11 at 2 PM PDT (5 PM EDT), and will fully unveil Scorpio to the world. We’ve seen a lot in terms of technical details behind the forthcoming console, thanks to comprehensive reports about what the developer kits for the Scorpio contain, and the specs developers have been provided in order to help them prepare software for the device’s consumer launch.

Some topline specs to get you excited – Scorpio’s GPU is around 4.5x as powerful as the Xbox One, and 1.4x more powerful than the PlayStation 4 Pro. It’ll also have an integrated power brick so you just have to hide a single, svelte cord, and it’ll feature an integrated 4K Blu-ray player.

We’ll find out what the final consumer console looks like at E3, and hopefully when to expect it and how much it’ll cost. For now, here’s a peek at what the developer kit hardware looks like, courtesy of Gamasutra, which could provide some hints about the shipping console’s industrial design:
