Facebook already allows us to subscribe to status updates via SMS. Now, Facebook is testing a new "Subscribe to" feature among a small number of users. The feature allows a user to be notified of all actions such as status updates or photo uploads of another user or a business page. This is separate from your news feed which shows only top news or the most recent activities of your friends and business pages that you like.
Fast Company goes as far as saying that this new feature is "stalker-friendly" when applied to personal pages. AllFacebook suggests that this feature is best suited for business pages only. With all the recent backlash against Facebook regarding privacy, let's hope Facebook chooses not to roll-out this feature for individual users and limit it to business pages.
