Facebook Messenger suggests what to talk about with “Conversation Topics” feature

Facebook really wants you to keep on chatting using its Messenger application.
The company has rolled out a feature that will provide you with suggestions so as to what
you should talk abo
ut. It appears to be part of Facebook’s strategy to increase user engagement.

The feature still appears to be in a test phase, as not everyone can see it
at the moment. However, users who do see it, can see conversation topic suggestions
right under a friend’s name in the Messenger’s activity indicator, which also shows you
 when that particular person was last online.

The idea behind Conversation Topics is simple: if you’re looking for a way to break
 the ice with a new Facebook friend or catch up with an old one, these conversation
 prompts can help you figure out what to talk about.

There are also some rumors of “Rooms” project. The feature is still unannounced and
unreleased, but many people have spotted it within the Messenger app code. So it would
appear that Facebook has something else brewing as well, kind of like a forum to discuss
 particular topics with particular people, perhaps?

Between conversation topics and Rooms, Facebook may just manage to keep users
 hooked to the messenger for longer periods of time. We will let you know when any of them hit the public.
