threadsy blog

We’ve been busy since our launch at Techcrunch50 2 days ago.

Today we’re excited to announce the addition of another key piece of pulling your online communication together into one place – Facebook messages. We’re especially excited because we’re the first service to use Facebook’s recently announced Inbox API.

Now featured in Inbound: Facebook messages
See all of the messages from your Facebook Inbox right in threadsy. Since Facebook messages are sent directly to you from people who expect that you’ll read them, we believe they fit the definition of Inbound – required reading – and belong in the Inbound column of threadsy (alongside messages from your email inboxes and twitter @mentions and direct messages). Facebook messages show up with the Facebook icon on the right, and if you want to see just these messages, you can use the Facebook account filter at the top.

Currently, we’re waiting for Facebook to support sending Facebook messages through threadsy. Until then, if you want to send a new Facebook message or reply to a Facebook message, threadsy takes you directly to Facebook’s website.

Also, just as in the rest of threadsy, opening a Facebook message will show you the sender’s Person Card in the right hand column.

We heard your feedback: Select All is live!

OK, a Select All button by itself isn’t something to get too excited about, but it’s pretty exciting to us because it’s the first time we’ve been able to quickly respond to your feedback and turn it into a clear improvement.

Since we launched 2 days ago, one of the loudest requests we’ve heard out of the hundreds of tweets, emails, and feedback forum posts we received is the need for a way to Select All messages in Inbound. Our team buckled down and voilà, Select All is live.

When you click Select All, it selects only the messages currently loaded in your Inbound column. This may include messages not visible on the screen, so the balloon notification at the bottom tells you how many messages are selected. You can delete, mark read, or mark unread all selected messages at once.

What feature would you like threadsy to add the most?
Please let us know on our feedback page. We’re all ears.
