Facebook Begins Showing More Search Results
BREAKING: Facebook just posted to its blog that they will roll out a small change to search results. They will give not only better results, but a wider variety. It's a bit hard to explain, so we'll let Facebook do the talking:
Now as you're typing in a query in the search bar, you will instantaneously see results not only of the people, events, groups and Pages you're connected with but also the connections of your friends and globally relevant results. You'll see a wider variety of relevant results and be able to discover new connections you might want to make on Facebook right as you're entering your search.So that's good. Plus, if you want to see more results, there's a See More Results link at the bottom of the automatic search result box to bring to you all of them, instead of just the top results as usual. Searching did need a slight improvement, so Facebook, nice going. Work on delivering more instantaneous results next time, though, instead of bringing us to a new page for more.
For example, if you start typing in "MGM" to find the Facebook Page for the band MGMT, you may see it as the first result in the drop-down menu because you or one of your friends is a fan of MGMT on Facebook. You can simply hit enter on that result and you will be taken directly to the MGMT Page.
This new feature will begin rollout today, so if you don't have it on your Facebook now, you will eventually.
