Summary | Facebook enabled event organizers to reach thousands of people. Because of these masses of invited people, accepting an invitation stopped being binding. Now the trend is towards smaller, more exclusive events for networking. Accepting an invitation to a smaller event is more binding and networking works better if the company is overviewable.

Summary | Facebook messenger now has the chatbot Botmio on offer which lets users make dinner reservations at restaurants. This is perfect for younger generations who are reluctant to pick up the phone to call a human to make a reservation - digital natives are "language lazy". They would rather just make a reservation online without interacting with another human.

Summary | Facebook is working on new technology to enable mind reading. This would enable users to type just by thinking and moreover possibly type in a foreign language they don't even speak. All this would be possible if we had sensors that could read brain waves and interpret them correctly. The developers at Facebook emphasize that only those thoughts would be read which are willingly shared by the user.

Facebook testet "Daumen runter"-Symbol
(Facebook is testing the "thumbs-down" symbol)

Summary | Facebook is testing the much--awaited thumbs-down reaction button. Ever since the "like" function existed on Facebook, users have been requesting a "dislike" function. So far, Facebook headquarters did incorporate a "dislike" function so as not to spread negativity on the platform. Now, they are testing it to see if people would use it as a "no", for instance to decline invitations or to communicate when making plans.
