Exactly what it says on the tin. Do you think the "like" option is going to mean the demise of comments?

    I'm not sure I like the like! Perhaps in just getting old and grumpy, resisting change:)

    Nearly all forms of social media use it in some shape or form. It's part of the internet now as much as cat gifs.

    I like it, but would be nice if they sent you notifications that someone liked your status, or comment. :)

    That was the first thought that entered my mind. Must resist the like!

    if anything, people say 'Nice!' all the time, so what we needed was a 'Nice!' button!

    I'm not overly impressed to be honest. I have a nasty suspicion it'll degrade into a series of people's posts just getting 20/30+ likes. Not saying that I always post the best/most well thought out comments myself all the time, but hell I at least like to show I made an effort to read folks posts. I think this will encourage a bit of bone idleness to it... Just my opinion.

    Until I saw this post I did not know there was a like button. As to whether I like it or not, I really don't have an opinion as I get few comments anyway, some likes might be nice.

    There are a bunch of things about fb that are wonderful. The like is one of em. It makes it easier to give your input in your daily rush. What they need now is notifications.. when people reply to you on forum posts, comment on your wall, like something of yours etc. It's not a bad thing i don't think because it seems like it would definately work in this setting.

    I don't think so, I didn't lose 36 almost 37 pounds on FB! LOL. Sometimes 'like' is sufficient. "Drank 8 glasses of water" click like. Walked 5 miles WOOOOOT!!!

    :laugh:
