Facebook is testing a function "Read Later" !!

Facebook wants you to be interested more in the news ... preferably on Facebook . The social network is testing a feature that would allow users to save links to read later , as revealed by the specialized site Allthings D. This strongly suggests the new app for smartphones or Pocket Instapaper .

"We constantly test new features , but we have nothing to say about it for now ," said a spokesman for Facebook to Allthings D.

Blog MyTechSkool has obtained screenshots. The idea is simple: when you see a link shared by your network , you can click a small icon bookmarking located on the right side. The article is added in your list of saved links. According to Techcrunch , the function is currently available in a handful of Facebook users. It is not yet known whether it will be extended to all members, or if it is available offline.

This is the second time that Facebook is testing a function "read later" . The first case appeared in versions of the app for iPhone and iPad in 2012.

Facebook does not make a secret of his plan to highlight the news on its website. Mark Zuckerberg , founder and CEO of the social network said earlier this year : " We want to give everyone the best possible personalized newspapers ." According to the " Wall Street Journal ," Facebook is also in the process of designing its own news reader .
