Facebook Has Made our lives Easy With its New Emojis

facebook-shareFinally a new addition to the emoji’s family. Facebook has launched five more emojis reactions; Love, haha, sad, wow & angry along with the traditional like on Wednesday. Up till now, facebook users were confused if it is appropriate to like a status about someone’s death or sorrow.

Facebook said it wanted to give its users more options to express their feelings. These new Reactions will allow people to respond more easily by expressing their emotions without even writing about it.

“We heard from people that they wanted more ways to express themselves on Facebook,” said Facebook product manager Sammi Krug. He further said the new emoji’s might boost clicks.

Some users say it is high time that facebook has launched new emojis whereas last year twitter changed its favorite to like, symbolizing it by a heart.

Facebook had been testing an alternative to ‘like’ in many countries; Ireland, Spain, Germany and many others. So now that we have a lot of options, I hope next time we see a sad status we won’t ‘like’ it instead we will use other options from the bar.

These emojis reactions will also work in groups and brands. No company will be able to block the ability to mark its posts with anger.

 

How to Add A Lightsaber to Your Facebook Profile Picture to Celebrate ‘The Force Awakens’

Facebook is now letting you show your passion by adding a light stabber in your profile picture. All you have to do is to choose which side you are at.  If you choose to be with Finn , you can over lay a blue stabber and if you choose Kylo Ren instead then you have the red stabber.

The new star wars filter is easy to use. After choosing the color for your stabber, navigate the facebook post for Finn or Kylo. Then press the “Try It” button below the movie poster above the comment section.

By clicking the star wars icon, it will switch the stabber. The stabber can be adjusted anywhere by just repositioning the photo.

Facebook allows you to keep the stabber for an hour, one day or as long as you want.  Just choose the “Never” option and let the stabber stay on your photo forever.

After choosing the best options for your profile photo, you can save the change and let everyone know which dark side you support.

Hearts are Replacing Twitter Favorites

You can say a lot with a heart! Twitter has changed its favorite to heart; the most iconic feature is now changed. You won’t be seeing a star anymore. Instead there is a heart exactly where you found a star. The hearts are also available on Vine’s apps and websites.
Likes work in the same way as favorites; the idea behind the change is to make twitter easier and more pleasing to use. Product manager Akarshan Kumar say: “The stars could be confusing to new users.”

He also said You might like a lot of things, but not everything can be your favorite. The heart, in contrast, is a universal symbol that resonates across languages, cultures, and time zones. The heart is more expressive, enabling you to convey a range of emotions and easily connect with people. And in our tests, we found that people loved it.”

Twitter-Heart-1

 

Tap the heart and see what happens. People love the new improved feature. Heart conveys a positive message. Many users were not clear what favorite meant on twitter.

We can like million things in a day by just tapping on the small heart shaped icon underneath the tweet. It is also good for marketing purposes; analyzing campaign results and quantifying them will be easy now.

Twitter had been experimenting with the hearts for quite a long time now; the feature was first introduced on Android in summers which later reached IOS. The response was positive. The new feature is now officially showing on Twitter, Android, IOS and Windows 10 apps since 3rd Novemeber, 2015.
