Wouldn't some level of support fall out of their graph search, by default?
I couldn't bring myself to more than skim the WSJ article, and I haven't used FB's graph search. But if you can search for "people I can reach/see" union "word" [where word can be e.g. #foo], it seems to me the userbase is already partways towards support, before FB does anything further.
I guess this leaves me wondering whether or not graph search already indexes "#foo", or whether it doesn't yet understand #foo as an targeted entity construct.
If #foo is already understood and indexed, then is this initiative then a matter of providing optimized aggregator UI's and/or API's?
