If you have a huge number of users who use your app daily, the idea of add certain features to more than one social network It's not crazy at all. We have already seen some examples of adding those "like" buttons to a social network like Twitter, although it did not have the great need that Pocket, another app for saving notes or documents for later reading, seems to have.
Pocket has been browsing through various features that they have turned it into a more social app of what were his first ideas in the beginning. Now, Pocket is adding the option to like and republish stories. The functionality is the same that you can get on other social networks such as Twitter or Tumblr.
This app started as a way to save a website for later reading. But the company has been launching certain novelties, to even use the information it collected from users to create recommendations in the style of others. Then it followed with the ability to follow contacts and interesting users to keep us informed that they are reading and thus read their comments.
With these two new options in power repost a story, to Twitter retweets, and to like them, also allows users to offer their appreciation on those recommendations or to relaunch some that they find very interesting.
Now, when you see stories from the users you follow, you can see also the number of likes and re-publications. You can also see your own feedback in the notifications tab and the status bar.
Some characteristics that for certain users may pass as totally useless when they have relied on this service for its primary utility, saving a website for later reading. This also implies that some users are forced to install other apps.
