This would be an all-new way for Facebook to show you how your friends are reacting to your posts. This could help brands highlight key posts that are bringing in a lot of reactions more easily. There is no official word about this development from Facebook although the company is known to test new and upcoming features with a small group of users before rolling it out widely.In more news about Facebook, the company announced on Tuesday that it was rolling out a tool that aims to provide users with potentially life-saving information in emergencies, as it seeks to improve its public image and play down its reputation as a network that aids the spread of misinformation.Local Alerts, which it has been testing since last year in 300 cities including Charlotte, St. Louis and Miami and now plans to offer across the United States, is intended to provide reliable information to people caught up in events such as mass shootings and extreme weather, it said in a blog post.With inputs from ReutersFirst Published:Aug 28, 2019, 17:48:22 IST
