The Facebook “Like” Button, Part 1

June 16, 2012

If someone posts that their gramma died, and they write how wonderful a person she was, and you “like” it โ€” I hate that it seems like you’re “liking” that their gramma just died, even though you’re really “liking” the undertones of the post, which is that she was a really great person and your friend was happy to have her in her life, and hopefully she was ready to die and peaceful and all that. Facebook should add another button, or buttons, like a “THAT BLOWS I’M SORRY” button.
