Source: Facebook To Launch Read, Listened, Watched, And Want Buttons

FacebookThe cat is out of the bag that Facebook is going to launch something big at its developer conference f8 this week. We've heard about the social music services that could be debuting in a few days, but as the New York Times conveyed this past weekend, Facebook is planning for ways to surface personal content better. And we've heard from a source that Facebook will introduce new buttons on the wall that will begin introducing some granularity to the "Like" concept. We're told these new buttons are "Read," "Listened," "Watched." The network will also soon launch new social commerce buttons like "Want" following the introductions of the aforementioned buttons. It's important to qualify that this is from a source (and not from Facebook) but from what we hear, Facebook users will be able to click Read, Listened, Watched on content in their news feed. And soon, "Want" as well.
