Mathew's comments: Facebook search: What’s the big deal?

Ed Kohler · 2 years ago

a few people will surely be embarassed by something someone stumbles upon thru search engines. Big deal is right.

It's smart for Facebook because they'll probably be able to leverage their member's names for 1 or 2 visitors / month per user from search engines.

Concerns are way overblown. I think it will actually fuel faster growth in Facebook as people run across listings in Google, but can’t contact the person without signing up for an account. If Facebook is growing by 1.2 million people a week now, it will be 1.7 million a week by October 15.
