CNET reports Facebook unveiled the latest thing it’s building today — Graph Search. CEO Mark Zuckerberg reportedly shows that Graph Search can answer burning queries like:
- “Friends who like Star Wars and Harry Potter.”
- “People named Chris who are friends of Lars and went to Stanford University,” and

3. “Which of my ‘friends’ I haven’t seen since grade one have done prison time for burglary, and also clicked that they “like” my vacation pics and Hawaiian status updates from today? P.S. in case anyone is secretly monitoring my Graph Searches or house, Aloha from Hawaii!”
