Is Facebook Testing a ‘Want’ Button?

Facebook may be testing a “Want” button that would allow you to add products to a virtual wish list.

According to Tom Waddington, a web developer for the site Cut Out + Keep, Facebook has a disabled “Want” button included in the Javascript coding its list of social plug-ins. This means that — in addition to existing plug-ins such as Subscribe and the Like button that allow users to see friend activity across the site — a “Want” button would likely allow members to see what items others in their network want to purchase.

“The code was released to the Facebook Javascript SDK on Wednesday,” Waddington told Mashable. “I keep track of the changes to the file.”
