Facebook dislike button
The Facebook
dislike button will affect many peoples online identity as it now allows them
to express their opinion more accurately on posts. However it may also make
them more self-conscious about what they post as they may not want their post
to be disliked. This may alter how people show their self’s online.
Personally I
think it is a great idea as it takes away many limitations faced by multiple
Facebook users when trying to express what they think of something. For example
if your friends dog has died and they post a heart-warming poem followed by a
picture of the now deceased dog in the prime of its like you don’t want to like
the status but you want them to know you sympathise with them you would hit the
dislike; as Mark Zuckerberg described the dislike button as a way to ‘express
empathy.’
Although I
think the dislike button is a good idea I personally won’t use it as I am more
of a twitter guy. But I understand this will be very appealing to a lot of
Facebook fanatics. When using Facebook there are many codes people abide by,
like saying happy birthday to friends, for example. However I can’t see the
dislike button affecting many codes. As well as this with the dislike button
being implemented into Facebook I can’t see it changing the Facebook culture
massively, however it may change the way people act on Facebook and the way
they express there views.
