Facebook has some more design tweaks up its sleeve. Although minor in comparison to the new Timeline and News Feed, Facebook seems to be on its way to introduce a universal Status Update button to the top bar a la Twitter. The new “Post on Your Timeline” button is a tiny pencil shaped one situated next to the user’s name on the upper right of Facebook’s top bar. This test was first spotted by Mashable. It is interesting to note that the post button was found on a profile that had not been granted access to Graph Search yet. The button appears on any page you navigate to, making it easy for users to add an image or update their status without having to head back to the Home or Timeline page. The button is reminiscent of Twitter’s tweet button, something the micro-blogging site has proudly sported for a long time now.
