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...

New Facebook Feed Customization Options

Facebook's main function is to facilitate communication and community interaction. People are engaging more frequently through open and relatable material, such as fresh recipes or nearby walks. Facebook suggests posts from authors and communities you might not be familiar with for you to enjoy and debate along with updates from your friends, Groups, and Pages. Through machine learning, what you see in your Feed is specifically tailored to your interests.

Customize Your Facebook Feed

 

In order to help you find the information that is most pertinent to you, we are unveiling new ways for you to tailor what appears in your Facebook Feed. On posts from the people and communities you're connected to as well as posts that Facebook suggests to you, you may now choose to show more or less of them. The ranking score for that post and those similar to it will momentarily increase if you choose to Show more. Its ranking score will temporarily drop if you choose Show less. We are enhancing the intelligence and responsiveness of our artificial intelligence systems by providing more options for incorporating direct feedback into Feed ranking.

This will occasionally be displayed on Feed posts. Soon, you'll be able to select whether to display more or fewer postings by tapping the three dots in the top right corner of the post. Additionally, we are beginning to test this feature in Reels.

We're also looking into ways to let you control how much content from your linked friends, family, groups, pages, and public figures appears in Feed. Feed Preferences contains these tools as well as Favorites, snooze, and reconnect.

You may see more of what you want and less of what you don't by using features like these to help you find more of the stuff that is valuable to you. We'll use direct input to iterate on our strategy as we do with every product update we make.

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...
