Image

The Duty Like You dutifully like everything your close friends and family post. 3. The Tactical Like You want them to like your stuff back. 4.

The biggest social network on earth keeps getting bigger.

Monday Facebook hit a huge milestone: a billion people used the service in one day, founder Mark Zuckerberg said in a post.  "On Monday, 1 in 7 people on Earth used Facebook to connect with their friends and family,“ he wrote.  "When we talk about our financials, we use average numbers, but this is different.  This was the first time we reached this milestone, and it’s just the beginning of connecting the whole world.” The sheer size of Facebook’s active user base dwarfs other social networks.  And it’s an impressive feat for the company’s growth team, which has continually found ways to attract new users despite essentially saturating the market in its home base of the United States.  Efforts like Internet.org, which will deliver basic internet services to developing countries using solar-powered planes, position the company to grow its reach even further. “A more open and connected world is a better world,” Zucker...

Jeremy Kyle Show pays £10,000 to transform guest that almost broke Twitter with her TEETH

Image
THE ITV daytime talk show caused Twitter users to post a never-ending stream of memes when she appeared with her awful gnashers.  A GUEST who appeared on the Jeremy Kyle Show has been transformed by the show's host after the nation took to Twitter to mock her for her atrocious teeth. The lady appeared in front of the televised audience, begging "Stop harassing me just because I'm sleeping with your ex" but she ended up being shot to fame on the back of her scarily-large protruding teeth . Viewers were immediately tuned out of her story and became transfixed by her unusual teeth and everyone joined in causing Twitter to go into meltdown. But now she looks completely different after the show's bosses paid for her to have them fixed - which is rumoured to have cost about £10,000. A source exclusively told our sister site, Mirror Online: "A camera crew went to her house and they filmed the whole thing.  She was awake during the treat...

The Tories are paying to get you to like them on Facebook

Image
If you’re not wild about the Conservatives, here’s some bad news: expect to see a lot more of David Cameron’s face on Facebook in the next few months. The Conservatives, who are set to outspend Labour by three to one in this general election campaign, are already using their vast pile of cash to fund adverts helping get their message across on Facebook. Spending on advertisements encouraging Facebook users to like’ the prime minister has helped the Tory leader’s social media reach in the last 12 months. Back in February 2014 he only had around 60,000 likes. Now it’s up to 470,000. That puts him well ahead of the 88,000 likes for Nick Clegg and – oh dear – just 67,000 for Ed Miliband. Even Nigel Farage only has 70,000, but then he’s probably not going for the online vote, is he? The Conservatives, on the other hand, definitely are. Social media is much beloved by politicians, who see it as a great chance to get their message across to voters without those...
