Last week, we covered a new Facebook feature for Mac users: desktop notifications. Apparently, the feature is part of a new Google Labs-like part of Facebook called Facebook Prototypes.
The company posted a link on TwitterTwitter
to what appears to be a screenshot of the new feature, which also features experimental products like “Similar Posts” and “Enhanced Event Emails.” You can sort prototypes by “most popular” (total installs), “new prototypes,” and “my prototypes.”
has grown to the size and scale that something like this makes sense. Rather than force functionality on users, instead let them test it out, and if it catches on, roll it out to all users. This is the process that GoogleGoogle
has used for numerous products that have gone on from Labs to “graduate” and become integrated into major Google services like Maps and GmailGmail
.
We’ll update here once the feature is fully live and we can (hopefully) test out a few more experimental apps.
ooooohhhh!!!!
