Facebook has announced a new feature Place Tips. Place Tips is a Facebook mobile feature that allows users to see localized tips and news feeds in and around nearby stores, restaurants, and other businesses. The feature lets users see pictures and status updates from friends who have visited that location before, as well as other relevant information such as posts from the location’s Facebook page and more.

Facebook has recently announced a new offer for businesses. Facebook Bluetooth Beacon for FREE. This offered to a select few business pages, mainly those who are active on Facebook. “Facebook Bluetooth beacons are free for you to use and help people see more information about your business whenever they use Facebook during their visit,” Facebook said on a signup page for the beacons.

What are Facebook Bluetooth® beacons?

Facebook Bluetooth® beacons are devices that businesses receive from Facebook. These beacons use Bluetooth® technology to send a signal to the Facebook app on your phone to help us show you the right place tips.

Place tips show you more info about places you visit. They show you your friends’ photos, let you learn from their experiences and re-live moments from that place. You can turn place tips off if you don't want to see them.
