It definitely needs you to interact with its platform and this is exactly why it has almost everything for everyone to interact in one manner or the other. And Facebook is growing, thanks to all the ways it engages its users. Today the social network tested its new feature that would enable users to reply to status messages right from their email.
The feature isn’t yet available for all, but reports state that it functions pretty smoothly and is fast to say the least. There has been no official word on it, but hopefully it will be out for everyone pretty soon. And this actually sooths Facebook users who cannot access the social network at work. Well this is of course not going to give them the opportunities to stay glued with Farmville but they can at least have the power to comment on statuses of others and make them feel they aren’t into any kind of hibernation. As for Facebook, I wasn’t really anticipating this, when it is actually trying to gain more page views with its privacy settings, giving users the ability to post updates without logging on to the network, this is quite a sacrifice they have made.
