Finally, you can save those newsfeed bits and pieces you haven’t had the time to look at. Facebook
has recently revealed their latest ‘Save’ feature. It allows users to
bookmark items on newsfeed they’d like to view at a later time.
Software engineer from Facebook, Daniel Giambalvo, states: ”Every
day, people find all sorts of interesting items on Facebook that they
don’t have time to explore right away. Now you can save items that you
find on Facebook to check out later when you have more time.”
So what can you save? Pretty much anything you want! Links, movies, music, TV, places and videos are all fair game!
The good thing about this feature is that saved items are only
available for users to view. However, should you wish to share your
save list with your friends, there will be a share-with-friends option.
In order to view your items in the ‘Save’list, you simply click on
the ‘More’tab on your mobile or click the side panel on the left side of
your computer browser. Very simple!
Another good feature of ‘save’will be its organisation. Your items
will be categorised and you can share items or move things into an
archive. You will also get reminders in your newsfeed so that you don’t
forget what you have in your ‘save’folder. You’ll never miss your
favourite video again!
‘Save’will be available to iOS,
Android and Internet web browsers in just a few days. But if you want
any questions answered about the new feature, the Facebook Help Centre
is available for questioning. Facebook is also testing a new
‘buy’option where users can purchase things directly through their news
feeds. We may never have to leave our houses again!
