Looks As If Facebook Is Testing Out A New Slimmer, Sexier Like Button

Though it has only been out for a few months, it seems as if Facebook's Like button is all over the web . And despite some initial backlash , a lot of people seem to like it (see what I did there?). It now appears that Facebook may already be testing a new version of the Like button. As you can see in the screenshots in this post, the Like button now has the like count on the right side of the actual button in its own smaller box. When you click on this new button, it brings the number inside the actual Like box. Previously, it remained outside the box and the Like box simply turned dark blue indicating you had clicked on it. Now the box remains light blue -- but again, this count is inside of it stating that "X people" liked the item.
