Facebook Groups is an important feature for the users to join in a conversation beyond their friend circle in the 1.6 billion-member online community. According to a report by Mashable, the social networking giant is testing a new feature called “Discover” within the Groups section to let users find groups relevant to them and join with other fellow members.
If you are looking for some tips on various topics and get information from other Facebook members about your preferred destinations or dining out at a new restaurant, Facebook Group have always been a reliable source of information.
As of today, Facebook allows users to join two types of groups – Private and Public. In Public Groups, any Facebook member can join that group. On the other hand, to join a Private Group, they need an invitation from the existing members of the group. In terms of users, Facebook is the second most popular feature after News Feed and is used by one billion people every month.
The new Discover feature will offer 25 different categories from parenting to sports, food to networking, animals & pets to hobby & leisure, and others. This year Facebook added some cool features like a reaction button on the post, Live Video streaming for all, Group Calling feature in Messenger. With the new feature, you’ll no longer need to search for groups in your search bar. Rather you can browse your favorite group category-wise in a new tab.
