In September, during one of the last meetings with users at the headquarters of Facebook, Mark Zuckerberg made a surprising declaration. After years of requests appears in the “do not like”. From the beginning, however, it was clear that community service does not give the possibility for direct vent negative emotions. The final shape of the new key was unknown – until now.
Reactions
The idea for a new button was simple – it must help to express complex emotions in situations where “liking” is out of place. For example, so far, except for comment, there was no way to express sadness or surprise. In situations where sometimes one entry comment on hundreds or thousands of people a much clearer to click on the button counting our voice.
Now to the “Like It” is set to join six new “I love it”, “Haha” “Super”, “Wow”, “sad” and “Pissed off”.
This form corresponds to the demand
As he wrote today on Facebook Chris Cox, the director responsible for product development, the choice of these particular six buttons do not accidental. Before the decision was just to not employees of Facebook analyzed the comments and expressed in their responses to find out what are the most frequently expressed emotions.
From today, users in Spain and Ireland can use the new buttons (actually emoji) after moving or held longer, the “I like it”. For now, this feature will be available for test only in these two countries – according to the study men of users have at least friends from abroad, so it will be easier to Facebook to draw conclusions from the sample.
