Graph Search will kick off by being in
beta, as all great enterprises start off. Originally, Facebook required
folks to browse around, learn stuff about others and purposefully make
new connections. Graph Search will return to such roots, although life
will be a whole lot easier as users are now about to use the graph to
make new connections.
Graph Search will come across as a bigger search bar at the top of
each page. Whenever you perform a search, that search will determine the
set of results pulled up, and it also doubles up as a title for the
page, now how about that? You are then able to edit the title and in the
process, create your own custom view of the content that you and your
friends have shared over on Facebook.
Graph Search is a very different animal from web search, where the
latter will take in a set of keywords (for example: “hip hop”) and
deliver the best possible results which match those keywords, while
Graph Search helps you combine phrases (for example: “my friends in New
York who like Jay-Z”) and retrieve a similar set of people, places,
photos or other content that’s been shared on Facebook. How has your Graph Search experience been so far?
