Facebook to have new option of emojis to express dislike

It goes without saying that Facebook is the most popular social networking website and there was a thinking of introducing a ‘dislike’ button aslogside the ‘like’ button. The thinking had been triggered by feedback from users who felt that there should be some form of expressing one’s opinion more effectively rather than just through the ‘like’ button.

Therefore, Facebook has unveiled its solution to people's calls for a "dislike" button — this would be in the form of six new emoji, each of which would represent the feelings more effectively. The emojis would represent "Love," "Haha," "Yay," "Wow," "Sad" and "Angry." More details here at this link.
Facebook would begin by introducing it first in Spain and Ireland, as a test. The selection of these countries is because they are relatively closed groups. Inclusion of Spain will allow the site to try out how the emoji work for non-English users.
Of course, it would be a one way traffic because once the buttons are rolled out to a users' feed, they cannot be turned off.
