Facebook introduces in text tagging feature similar to Twitter.
Facebook has introduced a new ability in wall posts which allows you to tag other friends while sending updates or writing on their walls. This feature is much like the one already on offer for the users of twitter. It is the same as twitter reply feature and require you to use a name with the @ to tag them and let them know you talked with someone else and discussed them. It will also be useful in creating a meeting or conference like environment where many people can be notified and asked for a reply on a single page or wall. The most benefiting user would be the person who uses Tweetdeck or similar software and has linked his Facebook and twitter updates.
