Facebook Introduced Post Search Feature!
Facebook Introduced Post Search Feature!
Couple of days ago, I was typing something on Facebook search box. And a notification appeared as - Now you can search posts! I was really surprised. Immediately I tried the feature and it was very useful. With this option, you can find any posts that youve seen before on Facebook.
Recently, Facebook has improved its search option. Earlier, we could search for People, Pages or Groups only. But now the users can also search for -

- Posts
- Photos
- Videos
- Links etc.
Note: Photos or videos can be found by the words used with them while sharing.
How to Search for Posts/ Videos/ Photos?
Suppose you need to find something on Facebook which youve seen before. It could be either a post, photo or video. Remember the words which were used with it.
- Now type the words in Facebook search box.
- Dont press Enter. Click on the search icon of the search box.

Look at the above image. There are options like posts, people, photos, pages, places etc. Try them one by one until you get your desired post.
Also remember, you may get several results for a single item if its shared in different groups or pages.
What Does Facebook Say about its Search?
- Find the people and posts that matter to you most.
- Find any post youve seen before on Facebook.
- Explore the world through the eyes of your friends.
- Find old friends - and new ones, too.
Concern for Other Search Engines!
Google or Bing is already capable of searching Facebook posts. If you search something on Google which is already shared by someone on Facebook, Google will show that Facebook page in search result.
But as there is an improvement on Facebook Search, Google may loose some traffic. Many tips and tricks, news, tutorials are now being shared on Facebook Groups, Profiles of Pages other than blogs or websites. And naturally people may start searching something on Facebook since it enables the users to search for posts!
And what, if Facebook starts a complete web search engine in the future? Mr. Google - Beware!

Blogger Introduced Featured Post Gadget!!
Blogger Introduced Featured Post Gadget!!
Well, I was expecting this from Blogger for a long time. And never thought that Blogger has already introduced this gadget in last month. Just yesterday, I was about to fix someones blog and discovered Featured Post gadget in the bloggers layout! And to be honest, I was more than happy . . .
Featured Post
Maybe most of you are familiar with the featured post. Though Blogger had no such option earlier, webmasters were able to display a featured post with the help of third party templates.
And there are also many scripts to help you out regarding featured post. But you dont need to use them anymore. Now you can use the default featured post gadget of Blogger. And its really easy to install. :)
Use of Featured Post
You know, a blog always shows the latest post youve published. As you publish the new posts, the older ones are out of focus. But sometimes you may need the older posts to be displayed on special occasions.
Suppose Ive some posts to be displayed in special occasions -
