Let's face it, we all lie, and we can't help it. We inflate things to make them seem more interesting and fun, and crave the reactions of others to make ourselves feel better. With the advent of social networks, all of this only intensified (and the mood became directly proportional to the number of likes), and the award-winning short film A Social Life shows how we are with the advent of Facebook, Instagram, etc. started living a double life and how easy it is to trick people into living a life we're not really living.
Facebook boss Mark Zuckerberg surprised everyone by appearing at the MWC 2016 in Barcelona. But the photo he posted on Facebook resonates more than that. Not the one in which he runs past the Sagrada Familia, but a scene that seems like something from George Orwell's dystopian novel 1984 or an Apple ad of the same name, but in fact it is a photo from Samsung's presentation in Barcelona, where Zuckerberg spoke about the potential of virtual reality.
Can you guess what the most annoying Facebook posts are? Photos of small children? Political "failures"? Food photos? Maybe selfies? All of these rank highly, but the most annoying type of post according to Facebook users is…
Do you know how many people use Facebook? Try to guess! No, 'huge' is not an acceptable answer. Along with the profits in the last quarter of 2015, Mark Zuckerberg (now the ninth richest man in the world) announced a number of interesting statistics about the size of his "family" via Facebook. Check out how big she got!
Until now, we could only express our opinion (with comments) on Facebook by liking the content, but in September Mark Zuckerberg shook the social network with the news that Facebook is introducing emoticons, these reactions ("Reactions"), which will join " "like" and offered users more possibilities of expression. The emotes have been tested by users in Ireland and Spain over the past months, and will be available elsewhere at the end of January. Do you like the news or would you rather "yayali" it?
There's some truth in every joke, and there's plenty of it in these Facebook-themed satirical illustrations. This social network has long outgrown its boundaries, and today many people can no longer imagine life without it. The comic illustrations are the work of illustrator Nathan W. Pyle, who goes crazy with Facebook's many features, and the situations we can all relate to.
Are you interested in what kind of All Star sneakers you would buy if McDonalds, Facebook, Coca-Cola, Apple, Google and other world-famous brands that have nothing to do with the footwear industry made them instead of Converse? Designer Andrea Salamino also asked himself this, and his idea is as follows. Would you wear these All Star sneakers?
Like most media, Facebook does a Year In Review at the end of the year and publishes the stories that were shared the most during the current year. Check out what was written and talked about the most on this most popular social network and what 2015 will be remembered for.
Facebook is apparently heeding Taylor Swift's advice that "we will never, never, never get back together." The popular social network now offers an option with which you can choose that your ex sees fewer of your posts and vice versa - you also see fewer of his/her Facebook posts.
Anyone who is not satisfied with the small is not worthy of the big, you could comment on the news that Facebook has announced the arrival of smileys that will join the Like button. Disappointed? Were you expecting a thumbs down? We nod to Facebook's move, as we agree with Mark Zuckerberg, who recently expressed his fear that the introduction of the Dislike button could lead to malicious actions. But since this in itself does not solve the limitations of the Like button, Facebook has offered as an alternative smileys, a series of emoticons that cover the gray areas of expressing an opinion about posts on this social network.
Facebook will get a major visual upgrade. What used to be a profile picture can soon be a video! It is a short video that will be played to anyone who chooses to visit our profile.
Facebook CEO Mark Zuckerberg took Facebook users on the first virtual tour of the new Facebook premises in Menlo Park, California. They were designed by the architect Frank Gehry, who not only designed the campus in Silicon Valley, but also the Facebook offices in London and Dublin. On 430,000 square meters, there will be work for 2,800 employees, and the main feature of the space is that it will breathe as one, which means that there will be no partitions, and Zuckerber himself will not be treated any differently from other employees.
