Who needs the Dislike Button the most?

October 5, 2015

Facebook lied to you: it's not a Dislike Button but something completely different.

The social media world is on pins and needles. The rumors about the dislike button coming to Facebook are rampant. Some scams have already appeared on the internet inviting users to be the first to try the new button, but they end up on malicious pages, leading people astray. Of course it is a scam.

But what will this button mean when it is officially released, what will it look like and how will it affect user interaction?

Let's start with the basics: the truth is that it will not be a Dislike button. And although no one yet knows exactly what it will look like, the only thing that is certain is that it will change the way we use the Facebook.

What have we heard about the Dislike button from Mark Zuckerberg?

At a recent public meeting held by the Mark Zuckerberg with ordinary mortals like us, replied, when asked, that they are seriously considering creating an alternative button of Like. However, this will not necessarily be negative but may express feelings such as sadness and empathy for something sad that someone mentions to a status. Watch the video of the quote to hear exactly what was said.

What will this mean for unpleasant events?

If, for example, someone writes something about a tragedy or an unpleasant family event, the Facebook will enable you to respond more accurately. For now, all we can do is click Like and leave a comment.

What can we expect?

Ο Zuckerberg said that they are already working on this issue and admitted that it is more difficult than it seems. Perhaps the Facebook make a button saying "I'm sorry" or making a gesture that looks like a hug or a heart. However, it will certainly not be something that conveys a negative mood, such as in Reddit.

Is there a trap?

When the Facebook make this button of empathy, will allow users to express their feelings more clearly about the status of the other. This will also allow those involved in the marketing and statistics to draw their conclusions more easily.

Of course, more interaction possibilities will allow businesses to better promote their products and services. If, for example, you like Apple and dislike in the Android, you may see more ads related to Apple at Feed Your. Do Like at Coca-Cola and you don't like the Pepsi. More and more ads with Coca-Cola you will see before you.

What do you think?

Do you like that the Dislike will not only have a negative connotation but will also be able to express feelings of sadness and sincere concern for the other person; Will it bother you that Facebook will it be able to know more about what you like and dislike?
