Responding to complaints from users, Facebook is promising to revamp its instant-messaging Chat feature, which has become one of the social-networking site's most popular.

Work is already in progress to improve the stability and speed of Chat, which was launched about two years ago, and the enhancements will continue over the coming weeks until the IM experience is "hassle-free and uninterrupted," according to Schmidt.
