Facebook Now Lets You Edit Comments And Shows Editing History
One thing that people missed on Facebook was the ability to edit comments . Now finally Facebook lets you edit comments .
The edit option is there in the form of a small pencil icon on the right side of comment , clicking which shows the drop down with the options either to edit or delete the comment .
When a comment is edited , Facebook will show an edit history to all users that will show the previous versions of your comment.
Facebook tells us the history feature is to ensure that "subsequent commenters or likers have the full context of the conversation." Basically, should a commenter completely change his or her comment (which is a fairly common form of trolling, truth-be-told), everybody else won't wonder why the comment thread seems nonsensical.
The new feature is now being rolled out to users and all users should see it in next couple of days .
