....will only stick to posting pics of family etc as a way of saving the photo's.

*Chroniclard dislike's this*

Can you inform your wife that there are hundreds of easy ways you can save photos without broadcasting them to everyone who doesn't give a toss about your ugly kids/family members, cheers.

Why would her friends dislike the stuff she posts?

I struggle to understand how Facebook is so important to people, like the OP and his wife. Sure it has it's uses, but do you really care that much? Seriously, and to post a thread about it?

+1. Thousands of FB employees and this is the result. What will be next, a scrollbar on each side of the page...

My brother is heavily into it, mid 40s and his entire life seems to be on it along with some pretty bigoted and short sighted views of the world, he's lucky he's self employed as any employer would run a mile if they checked it.

I log in one very month to send a message to a friend who lives abroad, can't remember the last time I used it to post anything though.

said she'd feel pretty **** if her so called friends started to dislike posts

Why? It would be much like the like button in that it would show you who disliked it. With that vital information she could take action on those people, like utilising letterbox antics.

Cant see why she is bothered. Its not a popularity contest.

And handy for other things.

If somebody posts "my mum passed away this morning" it never felt right to click "like" whereas "dislike" would be appropriate for bad news.

Looking at the sort of things some people are posting and spamming my news feed; a dislike button will be very handy to let them know that this garbage is not required :d

It's for exactly that purpose as Zuckerburger said on the radio this morning.

oh but it is, that's exactly what it is. It's nothing other than a forum for showing off.

You mean people post stuff and actually look to see how many likes they get? :confused:

some people live on facebook, you know that. Otherwise their crops would die and their farm would go under. Oh wait, that happens in real life BECAUSE they are on facebook 24/7 :eek:

who would have guessed!!

Facebook can be pretty much broken down into a few categories.

* Gloating Posts (look at my new car, on holiday, fancy restaurant, "amazing" children, new boy/girl friend)

* Political Posts (Isn't Dave a ****, Tory's booo, hug a tree, save the animals)

* Clickbait

None of it is very sociable or likeable tbh.
