Facebook may be launching their own web-based email system as early as Monday, several media outlets have reported.


According to the Los Angeles Times and Tech Crunch, the new email service has been nicknamed "Project Titan" and the "Gmail Killer," inside of the company. FaceBook also stated after start up we should have something similar to Google checkout and Paypal but wont hold users monies hostage.

A spokesperson for Facebook declined to comment.

If the rumors are true, it could put to rest problems with Facebook's messaging system that was originally built for back-and-forth communication like SMS.

Under the rumored email service, a users addresses will be your vanity url at Facebook.com (vanityurl@facebook.com). The service could offer insight into a recent tussle between Google and Facebook over sharing contacts. Google recently changed its terms of service preventing Facebook, and other third-party applications, from importing Gmail contacts unless data sharing reciprocity is provided.

If Facebook plans to launch on Monday, their Web 2.0 summit held in San Francisco, Calif., will be the likely platform.
