The community of designers at DesignCrowd has conceived a series of icons Facebook could consider implementing as part of its ’empathy’ drive.

After the hype around whether Facebook was going to implement a ‘Dislike’ button, it seems more likely the social media giant will roll out a series of icons to denote empathetic reactions to posts.

So to give Mark Zuckerberg an idea of the options available to them, the design community at DesignCrowd devised some original ideas that pushed the right buttons. There’s a variety of icons that might come in useful for the frenetic food posters, baby bloggers, and the over-sharer.
