Saved with the link. Notes from 2007 to 2016 are mostly the page's own words, so this is probably an excerpt.
These links will allow viewers to do specific tasks related to the post or app, and theyre not limited to Facebooks built-in action types Read, Listen, and Watch. For example, you can now Fave this Product for a Fab.com post, which will add something you see on a friends feed to your own Fab.com list. Some other early examples include Save this Place on Foursquare and Save this Recipe for a cooking app. When you click the link, you will complete the action and also post a story on your timeline/feed/ticker telling all of your friends that you did so. That wont be annoying at all.
