You Wont Find Friends Nearby Anymore: Facebook Pulls Its Location-Aware Mobile App To Add New Friends
So much for that! Just as quietly and quickly as Facebook had put "Find Friends Nearby" online on Sunday, the service seems to be no longer there. A visit to the mobile web page is blank, and a click on the "Find Friends Nearby" tab in the iOS app goes to an error page.When we first broke the news about Facebook's new feature yesterday, the prospect raised all sorts of questions about what Facebook might do in this space. The app lets users find other Facebook users near them, and then quickly add them to their network: the service looked very rudimentary, but the concept offers potential ideas for how Facebook could develop such a service going forward.Original Link: http://feedproxy.google.com/~r/Techcrunch/~3/i1L4eYPZ8hc/
