When one says Facebook, what does this mean? Chatting with friends? Playing games? Sharing of photos?
This may begin to change as Facebook entered another social territory with the launching of Facebook Dating to 19 countries — including the Philippines — on Wednesday.
According to Charmaine Hung, Facebook Dating product manager, the feature is available within the Facebook application, which would allow people to match with other Facebook Dating users based on their preferences and interests.
“People in the Philippines already use the platform to connect and celebrate relationships, and we are excited to offer them new ways of doing so,” Hung said in a pre-launch press briefing.
How it works
Hung said Facebook users have to ensure that they have the updated version of the application to access the feature.
Within the Facebook app, users have to look for the Facebook Dating button and create an account separate from their own Facebook account.
Once the account has been set up, Facebook will look for possible matches depending on preferences and interests of the user.
