Facebook feedback: include the message!

Dear Facebook,

Please include the actual question, wall message, etc in email notifications.

I want to read my friends' messages immediately even if I don't have time to interact (reply). I love being notified of stuff as it happens, but hate being forced to visit the site just to read the message.

Neutered notifications don't add any value to my inbox and may need to be disabled.  Here's my preference:

  1. New messages (question, wall, etc) are included in email notifications so I can easily keep up.  I'll happily go to the site to write something.
  2. I disable notifications and visit Facebook a couple of times a week.  Unlikely.  Out of sight, out of mind.
  3. Continue to get inbox-clogging notifications that don't really say anything.  Can't put up with it much more...

Thanks for listening,

Greg
