Dean Da Costa loves saving time at all costs. Optimizing his workflow is Dean’s passion, and he wants to share a tidbit with you on how to source social media accounts faster. When you do something a million times a day, every little step can help. Social Friend Finder removes some of the annoyances of hunting down a particular person.

Basically, this app takes your query and filters a search for only socials. It’s more than likely just constraining your search with some straightforward boolean phrases, but it gets the job done quite effectively.  There’s not a whole lot to be said about this service, other than it gives you a quick and straightforward way to source social media accounts with the push of a button.

The chrome extension, while helpful, isn’t strictly necessary to use this search function. Their main search page does the same thing if you don’t want to bother with having YET ANOTHER extension bloating your browser bar. We get it, the sourcer’s toolbox only has so much room in it.

In the tutorial, Dean Da Costa goes through a few steps to take advantage of Google Lens as well. If your curiosity is piqued, then you’re in luck! Dean made a video on Google Lens and how to take advantage of their tasty Reverse Image Search features.
