However, Facebook&#x27;s long-press function makes sense <i>inside an app</i>. It&#x27;s less a webapp there, and more a desktop app--even though it&#x27;s interfacing with the Internet, it&#x27;s presented standalone, not as a place to go within another program. You don&#x27;t expect to see the browser&#x27;s long-press menu in the Facebook app, because there is no browser.<p>As for desktop, if they&#x27;re intelligent at all, they&#x27;ll use a different method there. Perhaps all the new variations will be displayed side by side. Perhaps instead of only trigfering on a &quot;long-click&quot;, it&#x27;ll expand on a normal click.
