Facebook Reveals how they plan to take on Google Doodle

Google Doodle is a very popular feature on the search engine that usually pops up on special days; Mother's day, Health day, Christmas etc and in its little way it educates people on those important days thereby sensitising them to it. 

Now it seems Facebook has a plan of their own to battle this and rival Google's ingenious plan.

"We are introducing a marketing programme to invite people to share and talk about events and moments that are happening in their communities and around the world," Gary Briggs, Chief Marketing Officer at Facebook, wrote in a post. 

The plan by Facebook is to have messages appear at the top of News Feed about a specific event or moment. 

The goal of the message will be "to give people ways to connect and share with friends during holidays and events". 

The programme will also help people discover fun and interesting cultural moments and celebrate moments in history that continue to make the world more open and connected. 

"Users will start seeing a message from Facebook in their News Feed wishing them Happy Holidays. People will be invited to share a holiday card with their friends on Facebook and choose from a set of 18 custom-designed cards," the post read.
