Summary | Facebook has updated its "like" feature a year ago and now users have the opportunity to choose from a range of emojis to react to a post: love, laugh, suprised, sad, angry. Because this requires more clicks than a simple like, it can be inferred that users care more strongly about a post that they "reacted" to with an emoji. Facebook's algorithm is geared towards showing users much more content similar to the posts they reacted to.

Summary | Facebook has recently followed the footsteps of other large companies and implemented a chatbot in its messenger. Chatbots as conversational user interfaces are increasingly popular because smartphone users are reported to grow tired of having to download so many different apps. By enriching a social media service such as Facebook with a chatbot, users can enquire about things (e.g the weather) without changing platforms and using a mode that is familiar and comfortable for users: casual texting. The article however criticizes that chatbot technology is not very advanced and that it does not resemble human interaction yet.
