Facebook has finally given in to public demand, and decided to add a ‘Dislike’ button. They made the announcement yesterday at a public town hall meeting that was streamed online. Who watches that??
According to Mark Zuckerberg, “I think people have asked about the dislike button for many years. Today is a special day, because today is the day I can say we’re working on it and shipping it.”
Zuckerberg also said, “What users really want is the ability to express empathy. Not every moment is a good moment.”
Riiiiight! I think we know what it’s for….a way to diss someone’s opinions or annoying posts without actually having to say why. I’m preparing to lose at least a quarter of my friends. I can’t help but think that Donald Trump is somehow responsible for this.
There is no official release date of this new function. –Jim
