Tagging People in Facebook Status Updates
Came across an article on Mashable with described ten things you can do with your status updates on Facebook. I was particularly interested in this one:
To mention someone in a status update just type “@” (a la Twitter) in the status bar and start typing their name as it appears on Facebook. An auto-generated list will then come up with people in your social circle whose name starts with the letters you’ve typed. The feature also works with pages, brands, events and companies.
Hit the name you want, complete the update, click share and the name will become a hyperlink (you won’t see the @ symbol) and will appear in blue text
When you do this, your update shows up in that person’s newsfeed. The possibilities could be endless here for getting your status updates seen.
