Facebook Adds Lexicon And "Friend Feed" Style Outside Activity Alerts
By admin • Apr 22nd, 2008 • Category: InternetFacebook hasn’t yet added web search but it is allowing users to import content from third-party sites. Users are now permitted to import stories and content (into their mini-feeds) from a handful of sites: Flickr, Yelp, Picasa, and del.icio.us to start with, Digg and others to come. The intention is to enable people to do more on Facebook, without having to go “outside.”
In addition, Facebook has launched what it calls “Lexicon,” a successor to the shuttered Pulse. Lexicon is like the Yahoo Buzz Index or Google Trends/Zeitgeist in a way.
