Techcrunch speculates that Facebook will announce its own Web mail client, dubbed Project Titan, or the “Gmail killer,” at a press event in San Francisco on Monday. Facebook is going ubiquitous on may fronts, notably its Facebook Connect service, so e-mail makes sense in a conquer the whole universe sort of way.

Interesting, too, that this comes just as Google finally got around to cutting off Gmail contact imports to Facebook.

Will Facemail — or Fmail, or whatever they call it — be enough to dethrone the big three, namely (in order) Microsoft’s Hotmail, Yahoo Mail and Google’s Gmail? Time will tell.

Some interesting speculated features include:

• Spectacular relevance filtering, ensuring you only get the mail you really want, based on your social graph (Gizmodo).
• Integration with Microsoft’s Office Live Web apps (Mary Jo Foley’s All About Microsoft Blog).
• Creation of a new developer platform that lets people share the whole Web via e-mail, not just attachments (Allfacebook.com)
