According to Dharhmesh Mehta, Microsoft's Director for Windows Live product management, who spoke to ReadWriteWeb, more than 250 million chat conversations have already taken place between Messenger and Facebook since Microsoft started rolling out the latest version just three months ago. That's about 1.5 billion minutes of chat.
