What Does It Mean Someone Pokes You On Facebook?

I noticed that someone poked me on Facebook, but I’m not really sure what it means. Is it just a way to say hello, or does it have some other purpose? Can someone explain what a Facebook poke is supposed to mean and how people usually use it?

Someone pokes you on facebook and this is an easy way of calling your attention. It has no particular significance, it could be charming, a kind of hello, or even the means of reminding you that they are there. It is not a message, it is a little push or surf, on-line.

Facebook poke is a playful, informal way to catch a friend's attention or a digital "hello." It appears on their profile as a casual notification, akin to a wave or nudge. It usually has a vague meaning, such as a straightforward greeting, a hint of flirtation, or simply a way to say "hi" and get back in touch.
