Sometimes, it just feels weird to click "like" (someone's pet dog just died; you're giving that a thumbs up?), so Facebook is toying with the idea of adding a "sympathize" button.
A developer recently introduced the idea for the button at a Facebook hackathon, reports The Huffington Post. The idea is to give users a way to acknowledge things without "liking" them, and apparently, everyone present at the event seemed really excited about the idea.
But don't start scanning your timelines for the button just yet. A Facebook engineer named Dan Muriello told The Huffington Post his colleague's creation was "well-received by fellow Facebookers, but isn't making its way to the site (for now)."
