A button that should be pressed when someone shares a very emotional or sad status in social media especially on Facebook.
A: Facebook must introduce a sympathize button soon.
B: I agree with you. This is really weird when other friends press the 'Like' button even if the status is about the death of a relative.
A: Do you know about the person who suggested the necessity of this button so clearly?
B: Md. Ziaul Haque from Bangladesh; am I right?
A: Yes, he posted a status on Facebook on Aug 30, 2012 about the introduction of a 'Sympathise' button. The status was- "I find it really strange or weird especially when someone clicks the 'Like' option even when his friend faced an accident. How can we 'like' this phenomenon when the concerned person is not happy? I think my Facebook friends must agree with me on this note. According to me, Mark Zuckerberg should think seriously about this and add another option just beside the 'Like' button. I suggest that "Sympathise" can be the most suitable option."
B: Thanks a lot for this information.
A: It's alright.
