Likely to announce more changes for users of Facebook f8 developer conference 2011 Facebook, Facebook is testing a version of the news service that shows the behavior of all the friends, including solicitation activity and likes the product. This version of the news service Facebook provides developers and advertisers a greater chance of exposure. This unfiltered news service also increase the viability of the comments on the pages of the brand or product you like. By including comments on the news feed, Facebook is the hope of a greater interest in the marks.
Facebook also is considering greater functionality for the same button. By increasing the variety of responses to "Want", "need" or "having," Facebook can identify what customers want and use that information to target advertising more effectively. While proponents of the much desired "aversion" button is quick to believe that these revisions also include the negative response, but it's unlikely that Facebook will launch a button to turn the advertisers to the social network. For example, cyber-vigilantes could quickly become a brand or company with disgust button on the page of the associated brand. Brands and social networking sites are actively police the media when negative press releases about the company concerned.
Facebook has yet to announce a date for the Facebook developer conference f8, held in San Francisco, California. Last year's event was held in April 2010. It is also possible that the unfiltered news service is not well received by members of the site and shall not extend to 750 million users. Before the update of the much-maligned chat bar appears at the right of the page for users with widescreen monitors, Facebook was testing a sliding version of the news source in the same area of the page. However, if Facebook combines the two ideas, the right side of the page may contain the source of unfiltered news and a half page would be the same.
