Change the "I Like" icon

In the current version the "I Like" icon is shaped like a heart. Is it possible to replace this with e.g. the thumbs up icon used on this support site or a (happy) smiley?

I personally think the heart is too much "happy teen 'ish" - or is it just me?

 

Cheers Jacob

  I was thinking the same. Especially when I liked a status update of a female colleague. I was afraid it could be misinterpreted. She had the same feeling. Maybe an icon that is somewhat more neutral. :-)

  I share the same sentiment as Jacob and Ron's.

  Just came across this myself. I agree - the heart icon doesn't fit well in a corporate environment. Thumbs up would be much better.

  Agree. This should be a bookmark (or a note), not like.

  I agree. A thumbs up icon would be much more appropriate for business use.

  Thanks for your feedback everyone! We understand that heart icon can have various connotations, but on the other hand we believe it brings a little bit more fun and familiarity between coworkers. And Podio is all about changing the way we work.

  We will definitely take your voice into consideration, but please express it also via votes. It will help us see real interest. :)
