Facebook's 'Like' Revolution

摘要

Facebook has already given us new meanings for words such as "friend" and "poke." Now, it's aiming to put its own spin on the word "like," slapping the word on a button that Facebook executives hope will tie content across the web together on a single networking platform-its own.rnFacebook users may not have caught the subtle shift in the Like feature, which was formally launched in April, right away. After all, users can already show that they like their friends' photos, status updates, and other content by clicking on a button to give it their virtual thumbs-up. In the past, users could "Become a fan" of brands, products, companies, and more by signing on to dedicated group pages hosted on Facebook.
