Facebook Graph Search Makes Finding Graphs Easy

Facebook Graph Search Makes Finding Graphs Easy
Facebook CEO Mark Zuckerberg discusses the "Think, Search, Like" methodology of his new graph technology.

MENLO PARK, Calif. (CAP) - Facebook CEO Mark Zuckerberg has rocked the online search industry with his announcement that Facebook would soon be rolling out "Graph Search," a revolutionary new search engine that will let users find an unprecedented number of online graphs.

"Circle graphs, bar graphs, histograms ... They're all their at your fingertips," said Zuckerberg during a demonstration of the new function, at which he was able to instantly call up a pie chart showing the number of active users for Facebook, Google+ and MySpace.

"I know a pie chart isn't exactly a graph, but that's the beauty of the Graph Search - it's not limited to only the most popular kinds of graphs," he added. "You can find line graphs, box graphs, stem and leaf, candlestick, bubble, doughnut, radar, surface, XY...

"There are, like, a ton of graphs and charts here," he added.

He also noted that Facebook's slice on the pie chart was "wicked huge" compared to the other two. "Fist bump on that one," he said, proceeding to fist bump every reporter in the audience.

Asked if he really knew what the Graph Search was and how it worked, Zuckerberg paused for a minute and then answered, "Actually, no ... but I'm pretty sure it will allow us to keep taking advantage of stupid people."

Twitter Assholes Take Full Credit For Bomber's Capture
Twitter Assholes Take Full Credit For Bomber's Capture

BOSTON (CAP) - Twitter's vast network of assholes is taking credit this week for the location and capture of Boston Marathon bombing suspect Dzhokhar Tsarnaev, noting that without their constant uninformed speculation, it's highly doubtful he would have been found.

"We were tweeting literally 24 hours a day all week about this," noted a Twitter asshole known as @sux4uu. "We had some really good ideas, like that it was fundamentalist Muslim clerics, or renegade priests, or Whitey Bulger."

Though not a single suggestion on Twitter wound up yielding anything close to reality, @sux4uu noted that without their contributions, the investigation would have been "wicked boring."

The assholes also heralded their ongoing transcription and regurgitation of myriad sources, both legitimate and specious - including Tweeting out information from police scanners that officials said could have tipped off the suspect to their strategy.

"We were like doing the media's job for them," said Twitter asshole @PantsHockey, whose scanner Tweets as authorities approached the suspect in Watertown prompted an official response from the Boston Police Department: "Knock it off, asshole!"

"Whatevs. #bostonstrong!," tweeted @PantsHockey in response.
