Facebook on September 27 added a feature that lets people send cupcakes, coffee, stuffed animals or other gifts to friends at the social network. Facebook said it was rolling Gifts out gradually, starting in the United States.
People can click on icons that look like bow-wrapped boxes to select gifts from an array of merchants then send friends virtual cards either as private messages or for posting in public timelines at Facebook pages.
Intended recipients tell Facebook whether they accept gifts and where items should be delivered. The blog post showed the Gifts feature being used on a smartphone.
