Source: Facebook To Launch Read, Listened, Watched, And Want Buttons | TechCrunch
Facebook plans to unveil ‘read’ ‘listened’ and ‘watched’ buttons as the upcoming f8 developers conference, hoping to increase social gestures dramatically. Sound like Beacon?
If all of this is starting to sound a bit like Facebook’s infamous Beacon project, it shouldn’t be too surprising — from what we’ve heard a key part of these new Facebook features is to provide Beacon-like functionality in terms of auto-populating News Feed stories based around intent and actions. But they’ll do so without the advertising and privacy ramifications. At least for now…
Expect another PR mess.
