All things Ogilvy South Africa
Take a look at Facebook’s upcoming new news feed design. The new design aims to take away a lot of the clutter, give more info on links/pictures, and replicate the functionality across mobile and tablet devices. If you have ever seen Google+ you may notice an uncanny resemblance. Either way see it below, or watch the short clip above to see the new feed in action.
Last week Facebook launched a new search tool called Graph Search. Our social@Ogilvy team have created the below easy to understand guide to help you find out how it works, and what opportunities this bring for brands. Enjoy.

One of the things we do at Ogilvy Cape Town is to bring in external inspirational people to help educate our staff more on the digital marketing world.
