If your favorite news aggregator is Facebook’s News Feed, then you know that marking a story for reading later is an option that it could do well with. After all, we often end up saving interesting stories from our various subscription services one time or another to read later on, that it feels like the most natural thing to do. If you want to do the same on your Facebook News Feed, you should check out the handy little Chrome extension called Facebook Favorite.
