Facebook helps you connect and share with the people in your life. Whether you want to or not.

This is essentially a search engine that will look for key words in peoples Facebook feeds. Try it out.

Didn't work on my status update. I had the word "Celsius" in my status update 20 minutes ago and it is not showing up on the search.

Searched for other words in my friends' updates...nothin. Maybe it has to do with privacy settings?

I'm assuming if you have your privacy settings configured so that only those on your friends list can see anything about you, nothing will be available to that site. I searched for all sorts of things relating to my profile and my wife's - no results.

Correct, but most people on FB dont realize this and assume only their friends can see what they post.

My shit is set to only allow friends to view my information. This only works for dumbasses who haven't a fucking clue on internet privacy.

I couldn't find mine with it. Even the ones I could find I didn't see much. With most of them you could just see one pic and a friends list. Maybe a location on some.
