Facebook Photo Tag Search: The Best Thing Since Sliced Bread
September 16th, 2009 | by Stan Schroeder16 Comments
…if you enjoy the little things in life, that is. Yesterday we wrote about Facebook prototypes, a new Facebook (
) feature which lets you try out beta versions of new features. Click on “Applications” at the bottom left of your screen, then “Browse More Applications”, and then on “Prototypes”. One of the new features that caught my eye is Facebook Photo Tag Search. It’s a minor feature, but I’ve been waiting for it forever; it can be very fun and useful, especially if you’ve got a lot of Facebook friends.
It works in the following way; once it’s activated, you can go to the Photos dashboard, located at www.facebook.com/photos, and search photos by people tagged in them. Start typing a name in the search box, and Facebook will give you a list of matching friends.
The cool thing about the feature is the ability to search for multiple tagged friends at the same time; you can see all the photos with two, three or more particular people in them. There, you have another reason to properly tag all those photos in your collection (and to nudge your friends to do the same).
