Facebook officially launches social Atlas search for all US users

Sina Science and technology news Beijing time July 8 morning, Facebook formally launched a social map search in Monday for American users and users of American English, using the power of 1 billion user communities around the world to answer users ' questions about people, photos, places and interests. Some users have already tested Facebook's functionality. Facebook will launch other language versions of the service in the future. Mark Zuckerberg, Facebook's CEO, said at a press conference this January that social mapping is a new way to help users find relevant people, photos, places, and interests. Through a series of filters, such as "Site Type", "being praised by someone," or "friends have been there," users can use structured search tools to find their own networks and discover new social relationships. Facebook's social graph search is a search bar that appears on top of Facebook's pages, replacing the normal white search bar. To reassure users of privacy concerns, Facebook has taken a series of measures, such as introducing special search rules that limit the search results that adult users can view, which are relevant to minors. Social map search may be a key to Facebook's appeal to user interaction. Jennifer Van Grove, CNET editor Jennifer Van Gruff, said the discovery tool was the "smart, original, basic jigsaw puzzle" of Facebook's social network in the future. (D-Gold)
