Because it is even less personal than just sending an email, which is already pretty impersonal. Also, you can't respond directly from your "you got a message" notification, like you have to go log into facebook to respond unlike receiving an email, which is relatively more direct.
I don't understand when people have your email address (or your phone number!), but still send messages via facebook.
I guess a lot of the time I actually don't have people's e-mail, so it seems like messages sent through Facebook have become an acceptable substitute - and I am not placing wall posts in the same category, as I think they fall into a more informal category and don't require responses in most cases.
Maybe I'll just copy and paste the messages I sent into e-mails. I hope that doesn't seem too bitchy.

I obviously think about this crap too much.
Anyway, Justin, how's it going? I miss you!
