The Rooms experiment is not new, but in its form as a stand-alone application it was not successful, so Facebook rethought it in an integrated form in Messenger. Each "Room" will focus on specific topics and will bring together both users who are already friends on Facebook, as well as those who have the opportunity to meet and interact for the first time. The functionality is launched, in the first phase, in Australia and Canada, and, after testing, it will be available to users in other locations.
