Facebook Launches New @ Name Tagging

By admin, 15 September, 2009, 1 Comment

So today I discovered that Facebook have launched a Twitter style name tagging system within their Status update feature. You simply add a @ then start typing the first letters of the name and then pick the person from the list below.

In Twitter, this makes sense. Facebook though, why?  Yeah it’s another feature, yeah people will get to find friends of friends and add them on to their network, I still think it’s pointless. What next…eliminate profile walls and people communicate directly through the homepage feed via updates….oh wait…Twitter?
