That's apparently the premise behind Wolfram Alpha, a Web site that has the tech world buzzing ... and it hasn't even been launched yet.
Five years ago, hardly anybody had heard of Facebook. Today, it seems that there is nobody in Israel or the world over who is not familiar with the social networking Web site, which recently crossed the 200 million user threshold. Facebook is estimated to be worth $15 billion after Microsoft bought 1.6 percent stock in the company for $240 million. Arie Hasit, 26, witnessed the birth of Facebook. He shared the same apartment as Mark Zuckerberg, the site's founder, joined the same college fraternity, and witnessed first-hand the company's initial climb from a dormitory start-up to a dominant mega-monstrosity on the Web.
There was a ton of buzz in social media this week. Twitter’s co-founder squashed acquisition rumors (for now), while Facebook relented under pressure to bring back some old features. Twitterrific 2.0 came storming onto the scene this week, and Seesmic added Facebook to Seesmic Desktop. We also brought you some useful resources this week, from amazing designers and authors to follow on Twitter to different ways to create your own social...
A few weeks ago, Facebook started publicly testing a gifting program around its virtual currency, “Facebook credits”. In the test, users were able to give each other Facebook credits as public reward for content they posted to their stream - a kind of “Super” Like. Now, Facebook has expanded its virtual currency gifting experiment to branded virtual gifts in a test that’s currently running with Mars.
To celebrate Mother’s Day this weekend, Facebook announced on Friday that users will soon be able to list their family members on their profile. In the new “Family Members” section, users can add the names of their parents, siblings, and children, just as they’ve always been able to with significant others.
Facebook Inc. is expanding amid the worst market for Internet advertising since the dot-com bust.
They were created to help people stay in touch, but social networking websites like Facebook have taken on outsized roles as clearinghouses of information in times of tragedy.
Now, enter YouTube, Twitter, Facebook and social networking sites like Ning.com and behold -- an abundance of creativity. Voices that would otherwise go unheard find audiences. If someone likes an amateur video or a poem written on a blog -- it is passed on through e-mail and posted to new sites. (Or more technically: embedded onto new sites. You can copy a video from YouTube or other venues and just put it on your own Web page). Talent is experienced directly; an individual likes a singer, speaker, or writer OR doesn't, and acts accordingly. Yes, we all still view the world through our preconceptions and cultural conditioning but more gets through on the Internet. We have greater choices of what to watch and read and most importantly, we have more choices of where and how to participate. True, the Internet can become another "boob-tube," a place to devote too much passive time and distract us from the suffering and joys of "real" life, but it can also be an invitation to participate more fully in life.
«Adesso non possiamo sbagliare, siamo sotto la lente del mondo intero, tutti ci guardano e la responsabilità è enorme. Per riuscire dobbiamo restare umili e non farci illusioni perché il lavoro non sarà facile». Sergio Marchionne è felice, non lo vuole dire, ripete che come premio spera soltanto di riuscire a dormire. E’ a New York, sta per salire sull’aereo che lo riporterà in Italia dopo aver concluso le nozze con l’americana Chrysler.
AllFacebook: What platforms are you currently offering services for?
Victoria Ransom: We’re currently integrated with Facebook, Facebook Connect, MySpace and Ning. So with just a couple of clicks, companies can use our application to simultaneously publish their promotion on their Facebook Fan Page, on their MySpace page, within their Ning Network and on their website (via a microsite that is automatically integrated with Facebook Connect). Within the world of online promotions, this is pretty game-changing stuff. Enabling companies to run a promotion in multiple channels, tap into the viral features of social networks, and manage and analyse their campaign and data within one central source, is really powerful. Without our application a company wanting to run a multi-channel promotion would have to build a custom campaign for each channel - a time consuming and expensive process!
