Facebook to launch three new major features

Facebook is rumoured to be preparing three new major features for launch in coming months, involving a privacy filter for friend lists, group message broadcast functions and localised international settings. The message broadcast service will remove the current cap on the size of group message broadcasts, allowing mass messaging to be used. The function was originally excluded from the site over privacy and intrusion fears, in that it would be abused as a marketing tool to push mass information. (Cnet Blogs)
