Editor's Note: Facebook unveiled a new social search feature called Graph Search Tuesday that will allow users to search their friends' content on the Facebook platform.
The new feature is not a global web search engine like Google, that will allow users to search Facebook's social graph. However, users can only search content that has already been shared with them.
