Facebook building 'workplace network'

November 17, 2014 by admin

Facebook is building a network for professionals to connect and collaborate on work-related documents, the Financial Times reports.575 Madison Avenue New York City office window

Facebook at Work will look similar to its existing social network, but users will be able to keep their personal profiles separate, the paper says.

They also would be able to chat with colleagues, build professional networks and share documents, people said to be working on it told the Financial Times.

Facebook has been contacted by the BBC.

A spokesman said the company would respond later today.

The product, said to be in use internally at Facebook already, could be a strong competitor to existing services such as Google Drive, Microsoft Office and LinkedIn.

LinkedIn, which launched in 2003, is currently the largest professional network, with 332 million users in more than 200 countries, according to its website.

Facebook recorded 1.35 billion monthly active users in September 2014 – but some employers remain sceptical about the usefulness of social media at work, and many have banned it in the office.
