You Wont Find Friends Nearby Anymore: Facebook Pulls Its Location-Aware Mobile App To Add New Friends

FFN errorSo 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.

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.
