MoMo Zhou, a Facebook spokesperson, told BuzzFeed News the new "interested" button is now available to all users.

If you click it, you'll still get updates from the event and can decide later on if you actually want to go.

The new button will allow event planners to get a better sense of who is actually going to show up vs. who is just interested/being polite.
