Facebook’s mysterious event has thrown up its first big change for the social network – Graph Search.
Hmmm…not exactly the Facebook branded smartphone that we’d hoped for eh?
Graph Search is a new way to find your way around your friends' likes and interests, letting you narrow down contacts with tastes that match yours.
For example, type “Friends who live in London†on the new search bar on the top of the page and you’ll get the results. You’ll also get suggestions such as “Friends who live in London and like football†underneath.
You can, of course, narrow down search results even further using the 'Refine This Search' option that appears down the side.
It’s not just likes and data you can search. Type “Photos of me and XXX†and you’ll get photos that are tagged with both you and XXX on. That’s if you have any friends who are called XXX – which is unlikely.

Do you think that's an improvement ?
