Add SharedView back to Messenger

Submitted by mjflynt on March 11, 2009 to Annoyance, Bug, Legacy, Usability

Problem: The SharedView activity is no longer available in messenger.

Solution: This has been an oversight in past versions of Messenger and was added back when it was discovered missing. I guess no one has noticed so I will bring it up. Please add it back as an activity as SharedView is a great tool that is not given enough attention.
