While the Google denies any plan to compete with Facebook, Mark Zuckerberg, CEO of the world's largest social network, may present on Monday (15/11) an email service that will compete directly with Gmail.

Known as “Project Tit”, a nickname among Facebook employees, the new service is described internally as a “Gmail killer” by offering personal addresses within the @ facebook domain, as well as deep integration with the existing features on their profile. users.

Should the new service become a reality, Facebook Mail will be born explosively: more than half a billion users will have access to the new webmail. A surreal number compared to Gmail's 176 million users.
