@facebook.com was supposed to make people feel that all their electronic communication needs can be met by facebook. I'm guessing, it turned out people didn't mind that much logging into both their gmails/hotmails and facebook.

I personally think that people did mind, but they minded the fugly messages interface even more. Every HTML email had to open in a modal pop-up because it would get messed up by Facebook's internal styling.
