Whatsapp vs Viber – Who got a better deal?

I did a feature comparison to mobile messengers a while back. <a href="https://docs.google.com/spreadsheet/ccc?key=0AtWoXGrBr42pdDlraHd3NzZ5MXRTM3BsTy10TU1wMmc&amp;usp=sharing" rel="nofollow">https:&#x2F;&#x2F;docs.google.com&#x2F;spreadsheet&#x2F;ccc?key=0AtWoXGrBr42pdDl...</a>

I hope that they dont force me to use a fb login in whatsapp now!! That&#x27;ll really suck.

Buying a messenger was only logical for fb...fb chat was not going to compete with the likes of whatsapp...if you cannot beat them, buy them :D

Synergies in Viber - Rakuten deal seems better as there is a minimal overlap of user base especially in terms of geography.

Now FB has another layer of data about our phone contacts..
