A new feature on Facebook lets you follow pages’ status updates regardless of whether or not your friends. You can subscribe to a page and choose which updates you’d like to see appear in your news feed. You can choose to ignore posts like game and photo updates.

It also includes 14 effects, like making your cat videos sepia.
