Hi,

Is there a way of sending private messages to a user's friend using fb_graph?

Thanks,
Varun

No, you can't.
You can't send private messages via Graph API.

Hmm.. is there any other way of sending private messages?

I was going through fb_graph source code on Git. I saw message class under FbGraph module.
https://github.com/nov/fb_graph/blob/master/lib/fb_graph/message.rb
and https://github.com/nov/fb_graph/blob/master/lib/fb_graph/connections/messages.rb

Just curious to know what they do?

You can send an email to f...@facebook.com from b...@facebook.com via SMTP.
They also have XMPP-based Chat API, it's for "real-time" chatting though.

FB is still testing Messaging Graph API, and FbGraph::Message also for testing purpose.
(Before, the API was provided to limited developers, but I think it's totally closed now)
