Facebook announced a few new privacy features that emulate the Google+ model of sharing — new features to friends lists that make it easier for users to sort friends into different privacy levels and share content with selective groups. The optional features include smart lists, which automatically group a users’ friends into work, school, family and location-based groups, which can be edited by the user.
