Should there be a way to send messages privately to others (person in the friend's list at least). I can only ask questions privately.

I don't want to rate their answers but just want to inform something privately. Your suggestions :)
Tip for best answer: M$1.00
Separate topics with commas, or by pressing return. Use the delete or backspace key to edit or remove existing topics.

You can leave an optional "tip" with Mahalo's virtual currency, Mahalo Dollars. If you are asking a difficult question that might require some research, or if you'd like a wide variety of feedback, a higher tip often leads to more answers to your question.

I disagree with @easyeboy about private questions being a substitute for private messages. Some people have a minimum tip and this means that for me to ask them their email address (for example) I have to pay them for it.

Using private questions in place of private messages also devalues points intended for answering real questions by granting them for responding to messages and then rating them.

Furthermore there is a strong emphasis here on community and ability to communicate with that community seems only logical to me. This is also why I think the friends list should have additional features like the spy but filtered by friends/fans and twitter subscriptions to only friends' questions.

You can always ask them a question privately. That's just as good as a private message. There does not need to be a messaging service on here, as they've conquered that with the private questions. Some Answer sites do have private messages, but not all.

I would love to be able to private message, at least to my friends. There's a few people on here that I would like to get to know better, but I feel strange using the direct question option... I don't really have a direct question about their area of expertise to ask them, I just want to chat.
