Facebook launches 'Reactions' worldwide

Facebook's seven year old Like button has got some company in the form of reactions. The social networking website has added more 'reaction' other than just "Like" for users to use for commenting on posts. The new reactions are "Love", "Haha", "Wow", "Sad" and "Angry".

The feature was being tested since October last year on a select group of testers and today it has announced the global roll-out.

In order to add a reaction to the post just hold down the Like button on mobile or hover over it when on desktop. This will enable a tray with the reactions to pop up, and the user can then tap anyone of them.

Now that Facebook has added Reactions, people will be able to express their feeling to a particular post more explicitly. This brings more fun to the Facebook experience and makes it a more expressive platform.
