Facebook 'Meh' Button (PHOTO): What Button Do You Want To See?

Huffington Post     First Posted: 08/09/10 07:02 PM ET   Updated: 05/25/11 06:20 PM ET

Facebook users have been asking the social network to add a "Dislike" button in addition to its existing "Like" button.

One Facebook group clamoring for the feature called "Dislike Button" has over 3 million members.

But here's one button you might not have considered: a Facebook "Meh" button.
Boing Boing reader obeyken has created a prototype for the tool (see below).

What kind of "reaction" button would you want to see on Facebook--a "Hi" button? A "bleh" button? A "love" button?--and what would it look like?

Design the Facebook button you'd like to have, then upload a picture of it (along with what you'd call it) using the "Add a Slide" tool below.

 
Design the "emotion" button you'd love to see on Facebook! We'll feature the best submissions on HuffPost Tech.
Find a picture, click the participate button, add a title and upload your picture

I think it'd be horrible if facebook added a "dislike" or even a "meh" button. Internet bullying just becomes more and more of a problem - we don't need any more extremely passive ways of potentially hurting someone's feelings. If people have problems with each other they need to not have such easy access to faceless stabbings at each other.

"Nobody" as in whom? Who's to say what EVERYBODY cares or does not care for? "Nobody cares" statement is schoolyard -- and childish.

I wish there was a button that says "get a life, nobody cares." Or a "vapid" button.

Dislike is very negative. Maybe they are worried about some bad Karma.

02:28 PM on 08/10/2010
Meh, nobody cares what it stands for...

Where did "MEH" start? I know what it means, but I say it without the "M".
10:22 PM on 08/09/2010
It's hard to say where the phrase originated, but it was likely popularized in modern culture from The Simpsons http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=LCcZqcPOlNM

Thank you, Edward Heller. I'm only an occasional Simpson's viewer, but this answer sounds likely.

Pretty sure it's Yiddish.
02:25 PM on 08/10/2010
Oh. Really sure? Or Homer Simpson, as has also been mentioned?

Hmmm, Yiddish? Simpson? MEH!.
08:32 PM on 08/09/2010
Meh.
