It'll still never be the same though. So much drama and laziness on FB. People asking for opinions in posts... I can't help but not feel sorry for them if they are given bad info when the info has already been researched by tons here on EvoM.

That would be cool if it worked for seeing older posts.

Definitely. From the looks of it, it's meant to be a friends network Yelp/4square type search. Like if I'm hungry for sushi (mmm sushi) I can search where my friends have gone recently.

As far as finding the comment thread I know I had with someone 6 months ago, doubt that'll be searchable.

as a non-facebook user (probably a stupid question), can you not use ctrl+f? I realize no one new will use that.

Nope, because it hides older comments or posts and then if you scroll down far enough it will either auto load or you have to click to load older posts. Totally different than a Forum .

Yeah, it has no indexing at all. Searching for something from 6 months ago is basically like looking through a mile long piece of paper for one conversation.

Hmm i guess i posted in here a long time ago as i am getting email notifications whenever someone posts here, anyway on the topic of the nwevo facebook page it has always had a search function as long as I've been on there (JAN 17 2013). On the right, under the banner, next to notifications is a magnifying glass that allows you to search

Justin is on FB. Will that push you over there?

The reason why it is easier for me is that I have not had a personal computer for a few years now. Everything has to be mobile (or possible, but not officially, at work)
