Facebook’s ‘Like’ button turns 1

The Like button turns a year old today. I’d say that it seems like only yesterday that we were ‘becoming fans’ of things, but that would be a lie – can anyone honestly remember a time before we ‘liked’ our favourite products and services? The Like button in question is sitting at the bottom of this post, waiting you to click it, and ten thousand new websites add the button every single day. That’s a whole lotta likin’ going on. In case you’d like to see what the Like button looks like to FB users around the world (without having to set and reset your language options several dozen times), look on in wonder.
