In an effort to further augment its Creative Labs experiment Paper, Facebook announced Monday that the latest update to the mobile app includes new information-gathering and customization features for users. One of those is a new “Trending” section, a more extensive version of the similarly-titled section on the website, with 10 news topics instead of three, that allows users to see what others are sharing in Paper in real-time. For directed coverage, users can also search via hashtag for specific content. Additionally, the update includes the ability to update profile photos, tag pictures, mention friends and selectively share content.
