Facebook Search, a new way to find photos
Facebook CEO Mark Zuckerberg unveiled on Tuesday a feature to help its billion-plus users search for people and places within the social network, in the company's first major product launch event since its May initial public offering.
Speaking to reporters at its Menlo Park, California headquarters, Zuckerberg described what he called 'graph search,' which allows users to sort through content that has been shared with them.
Critics have long deemed the social network's current search capabilities inadequate.
Available as a 'beta' or early version now, the new feature - dubbed 'graph search' because Facebook refers to its growing content, data and membership as the 'social graph' - will initially let users sort through mainly photographs, people, places and members' interests, he added.
