Facebook is frequently testing out new features to improve
the user experience. Now, Facebook has added ‘See First’ feature to let users
control their news feed, earlier this week they tested “Suggested Topics”
feature to let users to come up with topics to talk about.
See First is a button that would be on user profiles and is
exactly what it seems to look; it is a way by which users mark what they want
to see first in their news feed, such as status posted by the friends they care
most about rather than a friend you just met or the posts by the Pages they
read often. Basically, what Facebook is doing here is giving its users more
control over ranking their connections.
” We are always exploring new ways to improve the Facebook
experience, and are currently running a small test of a feature that lets you
indicate that you’d like to see posts from a specific person or Page at the top
of your News Feed.” said Facebook’s spokesperson.
Earlier, Facebook News Feed settings menu lets users
unfollow anyone instantly to eliminate their posts from their News Feed without
unfriending them, but now it is much easier for them as they can select what
they want to see at the top of their News Feed. See First feature is another
way by which Facebook can collect data that it will use to make a more
attractive pitch to its advertisers.
Facebook has been determined to refine its News Feed these
days by hiding hoaxes and memes, showing people you frequently interact with
and taking how long you look at a post into account while determining what to
show you in the future.
