Facebook challenges the growth of the WhatsApp in U.S

I cannot believe that there are people who doesn't heard about Facebook if he/she have ever browse the internet.
Facebook is a social networking platform that allows users to connect to friends online. 
Whatsapp is a multi-platform instant messaging application for smart phones which grows magnifficiently from 2009. 
The key different between these two stuffs are Facebook is a website, whereas WhatsApp is an application that needs to be installed on a phone.

Last wednesday(2014.06.04) co-founder of WhatsApp said that the adoption of messaging service WhatsApp in the United States and some other markets is proving difficult.He also cited Japan and Taiwan as countries where “we could have been more successful with a little bit more effort.”
Earlier last year Facebook stated that it would acquire fast-growing WhatsApp for $19 billion in cash and stock.
