Facebook has launched a feature<br />

to let you temporarily hide annoying<br />

friends from your newsfeed. The feature,<br />

Snooze, allows you to unfollow<br />

a person, page, or group for 30 days.<br />

With Snooze, you can clear your<br />

News Feed of friends you still like,<br />

but who currently won’t stop posting<br />

about their recent exotic vacation,<br />

wedding, or new cat. When their life is<br />

back to normal, you can “Unsnooze”<br />

them, and they’ll be none the wiser.<br />

If you don’t Unsnooze, though, a<br />

Snooze will automatically expire after<br />

a month. Don’t worry — you’ll be<br />

notifi ed, so if someone’s vacation<br />

or cat-picture phase lasts longer<br />

than that, you can renew as needed.<br />

The option to Snooze a friend<br />

will appear in the right-corner<br />

drop-down menu on their posts.<br />

If you don’t have the option yet,<br />

it should appear in the next few<br />

weeks as the feature rolls out.<br />

Facebook has been monkeying<br />

around with its News Feed lately,<br />

in an effort to get people to share<br />

more, and more often, on the network.<br />

Features like Unfollow, Hide,<br />

Report, and See First have always allowed<br />

users some degree of control<br />

over the content of their news feeds.<br />

But Facebook’s elimination of the<br />

Ticker tool earlier this week worried<br />

some users that the company<br />

was trying to restrict this control.<br />

Facebook also just launched<br />

more granular controls about<br />

which parts of Facebook you want<br />

the things you post to appear.<br />

Those users can rest slightly easier after<br />

this release. It grants users yet another<br />

element of control over their own<br />

Facebook experience, and keeps<br />

the News Feed — to some extent, at<br />

least — in the hands of its readers.<br />

Facebook’s algorithms are sophisticated,<br />

but they haven’t overtaken us<br />

yet.<br />
