New Delhi: Facebook has now introduced a new look for messages. The revamped look for Facebook messages has a two-panel layout that features a list of your most recent messages on the left side and a reading pane on the right.

Currently, the Facebook messages page is organised into a single-column view. Users are required to open another page to view any conversations.

"The new side-by-side layout lets you click your most recent message on the left to see the whole conversation on the right," said Facebook.
