How To Search Facebook Friends By Location
The very first one was excellent-- whenever you meet a beginner, you can going to Facebook as well as identify which friends you currently have in common. It made life so fascinating.
The 2nd one was a should for traveling. If I was heading from Madison to Milwaukee or Chicago for the weekend, the first thing I would do was going to Facebook as well as see which of my friends were residing in my destination city.
After that Facebook eliminated the option. After that they included another way to do it through the My Friends tab. Then they took that away. After that you could do it by looking for the city as well as selecting "friends" Then that went. [sigh]
I surrendered. Facebook clearly really did not desire me to understand which of my friends remained in Madison as well as which were in Eco-friendly Bay. So I returned to mass messages as well as word-of-mouth, not comprehending why this needed to be so challenging.
Yet great information: there's a new method to look for friends by city on Facebook and it is extremely easy!
When you login to Facebook, at the really leading of the page, you will see a search bar.
It's where you search for friends, pages you like, cities, applications and also anything else you wish to locate within Facebook.
The thing lots of people don't realize though is that this search bar operates even more like a genuine search device than they recognize. If you enter an individual, a city or a page, it will reveal you that person, that city or that page. However you in fact can make your searches dramatically extra thorough.
If you key in "my friends in Jakarta" [place the name of any type of city], it will simply give you a listing of your friends in Jakarta, Indonesia.
If you enter "ice cream places in Jakarta" it will provide all the ice cream shops in Jakarta.
And so on.
It deserves noting that as soon as you have entered in your search, Facebook will certainly reveal you results based on what they consider to be "top" locates for you. So that may imply they will only reveal you ice cream shops in Jakarta whose page you like on Facebook. Or they could show you posts from your friends who have covered ice cream shops in Jakarta. (Remember this will not change existing personal privacy filters. You still will not see any web content from people who have not made their material offered to you.).
Yet take a look at the device bar at leading and you will certainly discover that you have numerous choices for ways to search.
Poke around in there and also see what else you find. If you simply want a listing of pages for ice cream shops in Jakarta, click "Pages" If you wish to see the most recent posts, click "Latest" "People" possibly won't get you much for this search, however when you are trying to find which of your friends stay in a particular city, this will certainly be the tab for you.
