Facebook now lets you edit your posts

New Delhi: A feature that Facebook had been testing for some time now has finally gone live on Facebook's web interface and is also being rolled out on the Android app. The edit feature is expected to be available on Facebook's iOS app soon.
 This means that you need not have to live with a typo or delete a post for an error in the text. Facebook users can easily edit the text of the post (and also the comments they post) and update an existing post. This new feature is available on Facebook web and is rolling out for Android. It is expected on iOS soon.
 Until now Facebook only allowed editing of image captions. This new Facebook change also raises the question of altered context. A comment or a like could be in reference to what was originally in the post, but by letting users edit the post itself may sometimes alter the meaning altogether.
