Facebook’s annual F8 Developer Conference kicked off on April 12 with more than 2,600 audience and hundreds of thousands of people watching via Facebook Live. It made a host of announcements, everything from a chatbot platform for its Messenger app to a 360-degree camera for making virtual reality movies.
Among the conference’s day 1 announcements was the new version of “Save Button” which brings the popular save feature on Facebook to sites off Facebook. The “Save Button” helps people save articles, products and videos from all over the web in a private list on Facebook, which they can easily access later from any device. At relevant times, it will also remind people about their saved things — like when a product goes on sale, or if they have saved an article they haven’t read yet.
Upon the launch of the new feature, it will be available on the websites of Product Hunt and Overstock.
