Facebook Considers Adding The Hate button by remmyz(m): 9:34pm On Apr 01, 2012
In 2010, Techcrunch broke the news that
Facebook
was going to release a "Like" button for the
whole
darn Internet. Now, TechCrunch has
learned
Facebook is considering a "Hate" button as
well.
According to Facebook's S-1 filing, users are
now
generating 2.7 billion Likes and Comments
per day.
With the Hate button, Facebook expects to
at least
double that. The S-1 noted "popular Pages
on
Facebook include Lady Gaga, Disney, and
Manchester United, each of which has move
than
20 million Likes." Many inside the company
think
the Hates could easily top that.
When the original Like button was
announced, Mark
Zuckerberg made a bold prediction there
would be
over 1 billion Likes across the web in just
the first 24
hours. Sources at Facebook say Mark is
estimating 2
billion Hates on the first day. Facebook
studies have
shown the sad fact that people hate things
on the
internet

It's about time. Having someone hate your page will have more impact than not liking it.

If this is true, then either Mark is crazy insane or insane crazy. When you like a page, Unlike is displayed should you change your mind and want to reverse the Like action. I wonder why there should now be a hate button. Or is he also gonna make that with Unhate? Confusionist Mark!

^ Its a very smart move actually.

Now we can declare our hate for all those politicians.

Think of what Greenpeace, human rights activists, etc can do with it. They'll start picketing websites or brands online.

More energy in hate than in love. More news, more traffic, more money.
