FACEBOOK TO BUY WHATSAPP


Social Network Giant, Facebook reportedly is looking to improve its mobile services by buying multi-platform messaging application Whatsapp.



That’s according toTechcrunch, which has heard from ‘sources close to the matter’ that Zuckerberg’s company is intalks with Whatsapp about a potential acquisition.

There are not yet any details on how much Facebook is looking to spend, and the firm has yet to respond to our request for comment.

Such a move would make sense for Facebook as it looks to expand its mobile services. Whatsapp, founded in 2009, announced in October 2011 that its 100 million daily active users were sending and receiving 1billion messages per day – users that Facebook will want to turn onto its social network.

These users are spread across multiple mobile platforms, including Android, Blackberry, IOS, Symbian and Windows Phone.
