Facebook Want Button Plugin May Be Coming; E-Commerce Sites Rejoice?
After the like & share buttons revolutionized the way people express themselves online, Facebook may now be coming up with a new button plugin called 'Want'. Developer Tom Waddington from #-Link-Snipped-# has found out that a Want button has been added to the Facebook Javascript SDK as an XFBML tag – <fb:wants>. So, we may soon see something like, "Amy and 65 others want this" on a Facebook timeline. Since, the button has still not appeared among other social plugins on #-Link-Snipped-#, its been said that this button will only work on Open Graph objects marked as “products.â€

We are all habituated to seeing the 'Like' button on websites and blogs across the internet, in fact sometimes we search for it for quick-sharing of the links on our Facebook walls. Our developer friends make use of the Facebook's Open Graph and a third-party app authorization to make a customized 'want' button. If Facebook indeed plans to roll out a 'Want' button, it may open up a whole new, powerful commerce solution. People will start using it to create their own wish-lists and e-commerce sites will be able to collect database about what people are desiring. Here's what it could look like -

This move from Facebook also means that, the company will be able to show ads to a very specific target audience. Does that mean there is a direct competition to Google AdWords? Will e-Commerce sites willingly embrace the new plugin? Time will tell.
