Facebook is always bringing new features, and this one could almost have gone unnoticed… Facebook now lets you use the “+” sign to tag people and/or pages in your status updates.

For sure the “+” sign makes more sense than “@” when it comes to adding someone in your status…

What do you think of this? Useful, fun, no big deal… or a joke directed at Google +?
However, it seems to work only in status updates and not in comments at this point…. Have you tried it? Does it work for you?
