Facebook Adds Link Preview Feature to Comments

Mandee Widrick on July 21, 2011 with 1 Comment

We were browsing Facebook today and discovered a new feature: link previews inside of Facebook comments. Now when you post a link within a comment, instead of just seeing the active link text, there is now a photo preview and description within the comment. See the comment that we left on this Facebook page thread:

If you don’t like seeing a link preview within the comment, or if it generates the wrong thumbnail image, all you have to do to get rid of it is click the “Remove Preview” link below the comment, right next to the “Like” option.

How many of you have noticed this new feature? What do you think?

    Thanks for pointing this feature out. It seems to not always work? Is it consistent for you?
