Techcrunch today says the social networking site has been testing a new IM service and could be unleashing it as soon as next week. The application will probably be built into users' Facebook pages, allowing them them to chat live with their friends. Other third-party apps which offer this service on Facebook 'are now basically dead'.

As always, the move comes at an interesting juncture: last week, AOL announced its buy-out of Bebo, the social networking site.

That's great because I was thinking, "Wow, AIM and GChat are so old. If only I had another way of connecting to friends virtually without having to use these dated programs." Thanks Facebook!
