Facebook is testing a second News Feed only for pages




If you see a rocket-shaped icon on the Facebook app for iOS or Android, this is because apparently the social network thinks that a News Feed is not enough for you.

The company is testing a second timeline where you can spend more time watching videos, memes and reading news stories.

By tapping on the rocket icon, you'll see a News Feed made from news stories, videos and other posts on Facebook pages. These are items that the social network believes will interest you, based on a variety of criteria, including similarity with other content you have enjoyed, and the popularity of a post among your friends.

Facebook has confirmed to TechCrunch at the end of March before releasing it: "We are testing a complementary feed with reports, videos and photos in evidence, customized for each user " said the social network.
