I like the feature in my MS Outlook at the office, but is it appropriate or useful for Facebook Group users? Read full article here>>

Worried that a message you posted to your Facebook Group went unread? Worry no longer.
Members will soon be able to see exactly who has viewed each update
posted to a Group, Facebook announced Wednesday. Below each post appears
“Seen by” followed by a number; users can hover over the text to see
who read each message and when they read it. The feature, which
Facebooks calls “read receipts,” also work on mobile.
Facebook introduced read receipts into another of its applications, Facebook Messenger, in early May. The
feature appears in both one-on-one messages and in group chats.
Read receipts are undoubtedly useful in the context of Groups, but
are already raising privacy concerns. Rubina Madan Fillion, social media
editor at SmartMoney and The Wall Street Journal, immediately dubbed it “creepy.”
What do you think of the new functionality? How would you feel if
read receipts were integrated into other parts of Facebook, like
personal or brand status updates?
