Study Shows Facebook Friends Can Make You Happy Or Sad
Latest research indicates that emoticons used in the Facebook posts by friends’ end up having a significant influence on the tone of our own status messages. An interactive tool to gauge the mood of friends’ updates and analyze what type of posts might lift your spirits uses scientific measure. The tool selects your top friends from a list of 25 people that you appear in photos or are tagged by.
The tool takes into account the behavioral patterns of the top 25 people in your friend list while discarding those that have updated their status fewer than 10 times in one year. The tool measures negativity and positivity of posts on Facebook. The app compares every word in a status update and eventually lists positive words like “hilarious†and “thoughtfulâ€, and negatives words, like “disaster†and “pathetic.â€
The app does not take context into consideration and it also does not take sarcasm into account. The system used by the app is called Linguistic Inquiry and Word Count, and is founded by a researcher of University of Texas. The research suggests people post positive updates on weekends. Their mood shows a spike during vacations and holiday season. Similarly there is negative effect on status updates during rains and bad weather.

This network has been in the pipeline for many years and Facebook should announce it at their F8 conference that will take place at the end of April. The mobile-ad network will be released with a fixed number of ad partners initially and then will brand out to larger groups in the coming months.
Ad networks manage the engagement of ads on several mobile apps and websites. The social media company may turn out to be a dominant force in this area as they have a huge database of over a billion users already. The revenue from ads of Facebook has been growing exponentially but there is a small drop in the inventory of advertising due to there has been migration of a sizable customer based to mobile phones that are not very friendly with display adverting.
The social media company has been building the mobile-ad network in-house on its own instead of choosing to partner or acquire another network like Twitter that bought MoPub for mobile advertising.

Linked makes use of the “engagement number†developed by comScore to gauge the active users.
Kiran Prasad, the senior director of mobile engineering at LinkedIn said:
"The primary purpose of that is to just enable a larger and larger portion of our engineering workforce to be able to be mobile-enabled. If it takes five seconds for you to load the primary screen, that's like a huge chunk of your experience immediately gone. Especially in international environments where the carrier networks aren't super duper fast, speed is going to be literally one of our primary primary concerns for mobile."
LinkedIn has just launched their site in the Chinese language for China market. This decision is aimed at harnessing greater leverage outside the US market. In total, 300 million users of Linkedin are based outside the U.S. Apart from focusing on mobile, the company intends to improve element that elevates 300-million user base.

Almost Half Of Twitter’s Users Have Never Tweeted
Almost Half Of Twitter’s Users Have Never Tweeted
A lot of new users are running to open Twitter accounts. We have seen a sharp decline in the popularity of Facebook but Twitter still remains a favorite. But the main issue faced by Twitter is that the users don’t tweet. A recent report has shown the fact the 44% of Twitters users haven’t even tweeted once. A company called Twopcharts provided this data.
Twitter claims that they have 241 million monthly active users. The company policy states that an active user is defined as one where the user logs in at least one time in a month. They do not mention the act of tweeting to consider a person as an active user. The way Twitter works makes it very enjoyable for users to read about myriad topics even without tweeting themselves. Twitter helps users to read news in real-time and track all the latest developments as a part of their social network. Hence one does not have to be an active user to enjoy the experience.
But the company thrives on activity and content generation from users. An active group of users are the most valued customers of Twitter. Tweets, retweets, favorites and other actions boost the advertising revenues of Twitter. Hence they have made it simple for users to perform these actions by building a user-friendlier social interface. It looks as though accounts on Twitter don’t really reveal a lot. It may also infer that such users make use of this platform to harness news.
As per Twopcharts 30% of current Twitter accounts have sent 1-10 tweets. Only 13% of the accounts have sent more than 100 tweets. This also suggests the retention rate of users. It estimates 542.1 million accounts tweeted atleast one time after they were created. This brings out the fact that at least half of the accounts may have attempted to use the platform. Only 23% of those accounts have been tweeting in the last 30 days.

Twitter Integrating Features of Facebook Into User Profiles
Twitter Integrating Features of Facebook Into User Profiles
Twitter is now clearly changing. The company has now allowed users to exercise more control on the new interface by including larger photos and tools that help in highlighting of tweets enabling others to see them. In a way, the user profile appears like that of Facebook. Information like display picture and bio are now moved to the left hand side of the page. The photo is bigger than before.
Opposite side of the page comprises of accounts that a user maybe recommended to follow and trending topics. Top of the page comprised of cover photo like that used on Google+ and Facebook. Before tweets appeared in chronological order on a users timeline, now they can be picked and pinned to the top to enhance visibility. This helps to slot the favorite tweets from the large heap.
A users “best†tweet will appear larger on the timeline. These tweets are the most re-tweeted, favorite or commented on tweets. This helps users to figure out the best content on the site. This will act as a guideline for users to understand the type of content that is being appreciated by fellow users on Twitter.
Twitter said in a blog post:
“Moment by moment, your Twitter profile shows the world who you are. Starting today, it will be even easier (and, we think, more fun) to express yourself through a new and improved web profile.â€
Twitters news profile page for users is only compatible with desktops as of now. It will be rolled out in small groups in weeks to come. But new users will get the latest update to Twitter. There is no confirmation of an update for mobile apps as of now.
