Mercedes-Benz USA picked up the trend and constantly looking for ways to pamper its elite customers decide d to offer Facebook on the screens inside the car.
In order to offer the social networking experience over the internet in the limited condition of a small screen and next to a driver who doesn’t need to be disturbed, the Facebook version for Mercedes Benz has a partial set of features, specially designed for drivers. The main focus of Mercedes Facebook is to offer details about friends and their location and to show business nearby.
Dan Rose, Facebook Vice President of Partnerships and Platform Marketing, explained that Facebook integration would soon reach the mainstream. “Now that cars have screens that are intelligent, you would expect that more and more car manufacturers will want to make those screens capable of allowing people to connect with their friends and take advantage of the social context that comes along with that,” predicted Rose.
