Facebook is testing a new button on the top of its homepage that allows users to post directly to Timeline regardless of what page they're on.
The button was first spotted by Mashable reporter Alex Fitzpatrick Friday morning. After clicking the button — which resides at the top right-hand side of any Facebook page, next to home button and the small icon of a user's profile picture — a prompt pops up that looks very similar to the one we're used to seeing for posting a Facebook status.
In the picture below, you can see he is on my Facebook page yet he can still post directly to his. Typically, you have to be on the homepage or your own page to post a status update.
The new feature was spotted on a page that has yet to be switched to the new Facebook news feed or be given access to Graph Search, its smarter search engine. We haven't seen any other pages with the feature just yet.
