Facebook's new Rooms app is a modern take on the message board
When the Internet was still in its infancy in terms of social interaction, there were forums, chat rooms, and message boards. These were the primary means of finding anonymous people with related interests and creating connections. Facebook is aiming to reinvigorate this type of interaction by introducing a new iOS app called Rooms.
Created by the Facebook Creative Labs, Rooms is a new application that will allow users with similar interests and hobbies to connect with each other. Rooms can be created by any user and, similar to social media apps, a room will have a feed of uploaded photos, text and videos.
How does this differ from Facebook or Instagram?
