About Twitter Profile Labels

Twitter uses visual identity signals like labels and badges on account profiles to help distinguish between various account types and to give more context about them. While some of these labels are generated by Twitter, others are the result of user activity. Here is a list of the labels and badges that are frequently seen on account profiles. Applied Profile labels by Twitter Checkmark in Blue The blue checkmark can indicate one of two things: either that a user's account has been verified according to Twitter's previous verification standards (active, notable, and authentic), or that the user has an active subscription to Twitter Blue, the company's new subscription service that launched on iOS on November 9, 2022. The active, notable, and authentic criteria that were applied in the previous process will not be reviewed for accounts that receive the blue checkmark as part of a Twitter Blue subscription. Here is more information about the blue checkmark. Gold Checkmark The...

The 15 MB item and the Googlebot!

We've been inundated with inquiries over the past few days regarding a recent revision to our Googlebot documentation. In particular, we've shown that when downloading particular file types, Googlebot only ever "sees" the first 15 megabytes (MB). This criterion has been in place for a long time. We recently included it to our documentation because it rarely changes and because some people might find it useful when debugging.

The referenced resources on the page are not included in this limit; rather, it only pertains to the bytes (content) received for the initial request made by Googlebot. For instance, when you open https://example.com/puppies.html, your browser will first download the HTML's bytes. Then, based on those bytes, it may request other files, such as external JavaScript, graphics, or other resources that the HTML links to. The Googlebot acts similarly.

How does the 15 MB restriction affect me?
Probably nothing. On the internet, there aren't many pages that are larger. Given that an HTML file's average size is only 30 kilobytes, you, dear reader, are probably not the owner of one (kB). However, if you are the creator of an HTML page that is larger than 15 MB, please consider moving some inline scripts and CSS clutter to other files.

After 15 MB, what happens to the content?
Only the first 15 MB of content is forwarded to indexing; anything after that is dropped by Googlebot.

What forms of content are subject to the 15 MB restriction?
When Googlebot (Googlebot Desktop and Googlebot Smartphone) downloads files that are compatible with Google Search, the 15 MB limit is in effect.

Does this imply that Googlebot is unable to view my image or video?
No, Googlebot retrieves the photos and videos that are referred to in HTML using a URL <img src="https://example.com/images/puppy.jpg" alt="cute puppy looking very disappointed" />  individually over the course of several fetches.

Do data URIs increase the size of the HTML file?
Yes. Since data URIs are contained within the HTML file, their use will increase its size.

How can I find out a page's dimensions?
There are other options, but utilising your own browser and its Developer Tools is probably the simplest. Launch the Developer Tools, then select the Network tab after loading the website as usual. You should be able to see all the requests your browser has to make when you reload the page. What you're searching for is in the top request, which includes the page's byte count in the Size field.

How Google was born?

At Stanford University in 1995, the Google story first begins. Sergey Brin, a current student at Stanford, was chosen to give Larry Page a tour while he was considering the university for graduate study. According to some accounts, they didn't agree on much during that initial meeting, but by the following year they had formed a partnership. They developed a search engine from their dorm rooms that used links to gauge the significance of particular Web pages. This search engine was given the name Backrub. Backrub was renamed Google shortly after that (phew). The name, which was a pun on the mathematical formula for 1 followed by 100 zeros, perfectly encapsulated Larry and Sergey's goal of "organising the world's information and making it broadly accessible and useful."  Over the following few years, Google attracted the interest of Silicon Valley investors in addition to the academic community. Google Inc. was founded when Andy Bechtolsheim, a co-founder of Sun, g...

Introducing Facebook's Home and Feeds 2022

  Mark Zuckerberg said today that you would be able to more easily manage the stuff you see and come across on Facebook. We are launching Feeds, a new tab that makes it simple for you to view the most recent postings from your friends, Pages, and groups. In this new tab, you may filter the content of your favourite friends and Pages by compiling a Favorites list of them. The main tab, which is the first thing you see when you launch the programme, will now be called Home. On Facebook, home is where you can connect, have fun, and discover new things. Feeds: Up-to-date information When it comes to categorising and viewing your information, we get that you might desire additional options. Sometimes you may already know what you're looking for, such as the most recent postings from your groups, or you may just want to find interesting, new stuff. The Feeds tab offers a convenient method to access the material from the people and communities you're currently associated with on Faceb...
