As of now, Facebook is nowhere in the search scenario, and AOL, Ask, and Amazon deal with much more queries than the social network. But if Google believes in the combined power of social media and search, as noted in a report by Business Insider, (which is what led to the birth of Google+), Facebook could be backed with a pretty powerful product.

However, “Search Plus Your World” returned tepid results for Google, and Facebook would be wise, (as would be expected) to not go down that lane, noted Pascal Emmanuel Gobry, an analyst at Business Insider. “They'd be smarter to do an AOL-type deal where they outsource search to Microsoft for a fee,” he said, in a discussion about Facebook’s plans.

So is Facebook doing anything related to search?
