Sorry Facebook, you’re not Google


I might very well use Facebook search to find out what restaurant my friends like, or what the funniest cat video of the day is.  Really, there’s probably not a better platform,  for finding things that your friends like or enjoy.

Conversely, if I were searching for the history of the Dvorak keyboard, I’d immediately start with Google.  Why?  Because that’s what Google does.  It takes the entirety of the Internet and makes it present itself in a clean, somewhat-organized form.

When it comes to search, Google does one thing, and it does that one thing exceptionally well.  It will be years before any company can even begin to come close to the results of Google Search.
