Facebook Develops Sympathize Button As Alternative to Like Button

In an interview, Facebook's software engineer Dan Muriello reported that his colleague has created a Sympathize button that could be an alternative to the Like button for use in negative emotions like "sad" or "depressed". For instance, when someone has posted that a family member has passed away, sympathize would be a more appropriate reaction.



But we might have to wait a while before this feature will be available. Muriello said " A lot of people were very excited. But we made a decision that it was not exactly the right time to launch that product yet."

This is a great idea that Facebook should consider. I would even suggest that they add more buttons.

What do you think of this soon to be feature? If you were to suggest another button what would it be? Share with us.
