Facebook Dating & Facebook News

#1 Post by labbe5 »

https://newsroom.fb.com/news/2019/09/facebook-dating/
Facebook Dating makes it easier to find love through what you like — helping you start meaningful relationships through things you have in common, like interests, events and groups. It takes the work out of creating a dating profile and gives you a more authentic look at who someone is.
Today, we’re launching Facebook Dating in the US. We’re also giving people the ability to integrate their Instagram posts directly into their Facebook Dating profile and giving people the ability to add Instagram followers to their Secret Crush lists, in addition to Facebook friends. By the end of the year, we’ll make it possible to add Facebook and Instagram Stories to your Dating profile too.

And next year you may download the profiles of all the dates your friends and enemies had, sort them into success/fail groups, and confront those who brag about their dates, when you know they didn't make out! :lol:

I think you're in for slim pickings there nosystemdthanks. Judging solely on this forum, the M/F ratio of non win or mac users is not good for the single guy looking for love

youre not wrong-- it is easier to convert people than to find them.

though ive found users under the most unlikely of circumstances (for example, someone i had a crush on a few years ago, who it turned out actually ran puppy at home.)

Facebook News

Facebook announced a new feature called Facebook News. Facebook News was created in partnership with the journalism industry. Given Facebook’s popularity, Facebook News may become a significant source of audience growth for publishers.

Facebook will begin with a test group of local news providers in ten areas.

The initial ten cities included in Facebook Local News are:

New York
Los Angeles
Chicago
Dallas-Fort Worth
Philadelphia
Houston
Washington DC
Miami
Atlanta
Boston

Facebook News represents an opportunity to grow their audience from a brand new source. It allows news organizations to obtain subscribers and maintain that subscription model on Facebook. Facebook News, developed in consultation with the news industry, appears to be a balanced approach between the needs of journalism and those who wish to read news.
