Whatsapp To Introduce Free Calls From April 2014

WhatsApp Inc., the mobile messaging service
 that agreed to be acquired last 2 weeks by
 Facebook Inc. for $19 billion, said Monday that it
 would offer voice calling as early as April,
 allowing free phone calls among WhatsApp's
 465 million users. Jan Koum, the co-founder and
 chief executive of WhatsApp, also said during a
 speech at Mobile World Congress in Barcelona
 that he is hoping to grow the service to one or
 two billion users. Mr. Koum said that the
 WhatsApp voice product would "focus on
 simplicity" as it has with its text-based
 messaging service. He said that WhatsApp
 would first release a version of the voice service
 for Apple Inc.'s, iPhone and Google Inc.'s
 Android platforms, followed by services for
 Microsoft Corp.'s Windows Phone, as well as
 some phones by BlackBerry Ltd. and Nokia Corp.
 "We want to continue to have that minimalistic
 approach to the product," he said. "We at
 WhatsApp want to get out of the way and let
 people communicate." Mr. Koum added that the
 voice product would "use the least amount of
 bandwidth, and we optimize the hell out of it."
 Speaking about the Facebook acquisition
 announcement earlier this month, Mr. Koum said
 that the product wouldn't change, stressing that
 WhatsApp would remain independent. He cited
 Instagram's example, after the acquisition of
 the photo-sharing service by Facebook.
 Mr. Koum said that WhatsApp was likely
 valuable to Facebook because "we both want to
 make the world more connected," though Mr.
 Koum stressed that WhatsApp wanted to know
 "as little as possible" about its users, including
 details such as a user's name. "There are no
 plans to change anything that we do with the
 product today," he said, using words like
 "minimalistic," "utilitarian" and "uncluttered" to
 describe his philosophy.
