Great news for typo-prone tweeters: Twitter Blue, a $2.99 monthly subscription, appears to be coming soon to a Timeline near you. Two weeks ago, researcher Jane Manchun Wong first reported that Twitter’s new subscription service is in the works. But yesterday, Twitter’s iOS App Store listing updated to list Twitter Blue as an in-app purchase, […] Learn more / En savoir plus / Mehr erfahren: https://www.scoop.it/t/social-media-and-its-influence/?&tag=Twitter

Twitter hat mit Tip Jar für die englischsprachige Version testweise eine Bezahloption für Twitter-Anwender eingeführt. Twitter sieht dies als eine Möglichkeit an, dass Nutzer neben Follows, Likes und Retweets für ihren Content eine monetäre Belohnung erhalten können. Auch im hauseigenen Clubhouse-Clon Spaces sollen sie Zahlungen versenden und annehmen können. Allerdings gilt das zunächst nur für Anwender, die die App unter Android verwenden. Doch ganz so sicher scheint die Funktion noch nicht zu sein: Ein Tip-Jar-Nutzer stellte fest, dass die mit Paypal verknüpfte E-Mail-Adresse des Geldempfängers eingesehen werden kann – auch dann, wenn kein Geld versendet wird.

Twitter is planning a future update that will allow accounts enabled with two-factor authentication to use security keys as the only authentication method, the company said on Monday. At present, you can use a security key to sign in to your Twitter account, but you need to have another 2FA method — like an authenticator app or SMS codes — enabled as backup.
While authentication apps like Google Authenticator or Authy are more secure than using SMS codes for 2FA, security keys — physical keys that connect to your computer using USB or Bluetooth — are the most secure way to protect an account online. Users don’t have to type in a code that could be intercepted by a malicious third party.
You connect the key, your browser issues a challenge, then the key cryptographically signs the challenge and verifies your identity. Another benefit of using a security key: users don’t have to give Twitter any additional personal information, such as a telephone number, to be able to log in to their accounts.

Améliorer la santé de la conversation”. Voici comment Twitter vante les mérites de sa toute dernière acquisition. Il s’agit de Fabula AI, une start-up basée à Londres spécialisée dans l’analyse approfondie des graphes en utilisant l'apprentissage automatique. Twitter compte s’appuyer sur cette technologie pour améliorer sa lutte contre les infox et le spam notamment en extrayant des signaux à partir des relations et interactions détectées dans le graphe. Un outil qui devrait s’avérer primordial alors que les Etats-Unis s’acheminent vers la campagne pour l’élection présidentielle de 2020.
L’acquisition de Fabula s’apparente davantage à une recrutement de talents puisque l’équipe va rejoindre le groupe Cortex chez Twitter qui développe les solutions de machine learning pour le réseau social. Michael Bronstein, le cofondateur de la start-up pilotera les travaux sur l’apprentissage profond des graphes. Twitter n’a pas communiqué les détails financiers de l’acquisition de Fabula AI.

Perhaps it's the advertising. Perhaps it's the politics. Perhaps it's the brutal harassment and paper-thin protections for users. Perhaps it's the Nazis. Whatever your personal reason, you've come to the conclusion that it's finally time to quit Twitter.
Great. Welcome to Mastodon. Learn more / En savoir plus / Mehr erfahren: http://www.scoop.it/t/social-media-and-its-influence/?&tag=Mastodon

Twitter schafft ersten Gewinn der Firmengeschichte
Zwölf Jahre hat es gedauert, nun kann Twitter feiern: Das Unternehmen kann erstmals überhaupt einen Gewinn verbuchen. Die Anzahl der Nutzer ist in den vergangenen zwölf Monaten um 11 Millionen gestiegen - eigentlich nicht viel für eine Firma, die täglich weltweit in den Nachrichten vorkommt.
Das im März 2006 gegründete Unternehmen Twitter hat im vergangenen Geschäftsquartal erstmals einen Nettogewinn ausgewiesen. 91 Millionen US-Dollar waren es in den Monaten Oktober bis Dezember 2017. Im gleichen Vorjahreszeitraum war noch ein Verlust von 167 Millionen US-Dollar angefallen. Der Quartalsumsatz ist um 2 Prozent auf 732 Millionen US-Dollar gestiegen. Im gesamten Geschäftsjahr hat Twitter einen Umsatz von 2,4 Milliarden US-Dollar generiert und dabei Verluste in Höhe von 108 Millionen US-Dollar verbucht.

Twitter’s 280 character limit has now been rolled out to everyone. In this post I’ll give you a few tweet ideas on how you can use the new update for your brand or business.
Personally, I really liked the 140 character limit, and after being in this industry for some time, I'd gotten good at chopping down long-form text to fit the platform's restrictions. I loved the challenge, and I also think it's been a big part of the appeal of Twitter - you know you're logging on to short thoughts and not long rants.

Twitter is going through some turmoil at the moment...to say the least. Ever since the new "Chief Twit" took over, many advertisers and popular users have fled from the app, seeking greener pastures. With the competition at its weakest, many Twitter alternatives have stepped up to take the popular app's place. Apps like Cohost, B-Heard, and CounterSocial are offering new, safer spaces for users afraid of what "free speech" looks like on Twitter, however, the app gaining the most buzz as of late is Mastodon.

It’s been called Twitter Article before, but now the bird app’s long-form posts feature goes by Notes, and it’s officially being tested with a few users now.
On Wednesday, Twitter announced via a tweet that it was now testing its Notes feature and introduced it as “a way to write longer on Twitter.” Learn more / En savoir plus / Mehr erfahren: https://www.scoop.it/t/social-media-and-its-influence/?&tag=Twitter

Twitter has begun testing the first of its proposed suite of new privacy tools: the ability to remove a follower without blocking them. The remove follower feature is currently being tested on the web and seems to canonize the “soft block” concept as an official Twitter tool.
According to the tweet announcing the test, you can remove followers from the follower list on your profile page. You just click the three-dot menu next to a follower’s name, click “Remove follower,” and your tweets will no longer automatically show up in their timeline.

Schon seit längerem denkt Twitter darüber nach, zusätzliche Einnahmen durch ein Abo-Modell zu generieren. Nun bringt die Social-Media-Plattform Twitter Blue an den Start. Vorerst aber nur in Kanada und Australien. Die Bezahl-Version wartet mit einigen neuen Funktionen auf.
Twitter bringt seinen ersten kostenpflichtigen Abo-Service an den Start. Das Produkt namens Twitter Blue gibt es zunächst in Kanada und Australien und soll im Laufe der Zeit auch auf andere Märkte ausgedehnt werden, teilte Twitter mit. Die Kosten für den Dienst werden 3,49 kanadische Dollar pro Monat bzw. 4,49 australische Dollar monatlich betragen.
Die künftigen Twitter-Blue-Abonnenten könnten einige zusätzliche Funktionen nutzen. Sie werden künftig unter anderem 30 Sekunden lang fertige Tweets verändern können. Außerdem können sie gespeicherte Tweets in "Lesezeichen"-Ordnern besser organisieren und bekommen eine eigene Kundenbetreuung.

Twitter has launched a new "tip jar" feature that lets people send money to others on the social network.
The company says the feature is "an easy way to support the incredible voices that make up the conversation".
To begin with, only a select group of people can receive tips - a group Twitter said was made up of "creators", journalists, experts, and non-profits.
But the feature has also been criticised for exposing personal information such as email addresses.
The tip jar function essentially adds a small icon to a user's profile - on mobile devices only for now - with a drop-down menu for other payment providers such as PayPal, Venmo, or the Cash App, the latter two of which are popular in the United States.
But because the payment is made through those external systems, some Twitter users noticed that tipping a PayPal account lets the recipient know the postal address of the tip sender.
In other cases, the recipient's email address could be seen, whether or not any money was sent. Learn more / En savoir plus / Mehr erfahren: https://www.scoop.it/t/social-media-and-its-influence/?&tag=Twitter

Twitter a franchi une étape importante pour renforcer la protection des comptes avec des clés d’authentification. Jusqu’à présent, il était possible d’associer une clé par compte. Désormais, le réseau social vient d’annoncer que l’on peut désormais en associer plusieurs.
Les clés de sécurité sont particulièrement utiles pour l'authentification à deux facteurs, car on peut les lier à un site ou un service particulier. Cela protège contre les attaques par phishing contre lesquelles les mots de passe ne sont pas suffisants. On les oublie, ils ne sont pas assez robustes, on peut se les faire subtiliser. L'authentification à deux facteurs associe souvent un mot de passe à une autre étape de connexion : un code généré par une application d'authentification ou envoyé par SMS, par exemple, ou une clé de sécurité physique que l’on connecte à un ordinateur portable ou à un smartphone.

Once upon a time, Twitter's whole thing was that people were supposed to keep their messages short and to the point. The site's newest update seemingly goes against that philosophy.
On Wednesday, Twitter rolled out a tiny little feature that will make it easier for you to thread your tweets together. Tweet threading is a feature that's been around for several years, but now you can choose to add a new tweet you're drafting to an existing thread right from the text box. Twitter posted a helpful GIF to explain how it works. Learn more / En savoir plus / Mehr erfahren: https://www.scoop.it/t/social-media-and-its-influence/?&tag=Twitter

Twitter has long positioned itself as the “global town square” in which the world comes together to have a shared conversation across geographic and cultural boundaries. Such was the early vision of last decade's social platforms, that they would bring us together as a society and overcome the ability of elites to dictate the global conversation. Instead, even as Twitter’s CEO touted his company’s global reach in 2013, the platform’s growth had leveled off and over the half-decade since, Twitter has shrunk almost in half, shed its vaunted geotagged resolution, centralized around an ever-older set of elite accounts and transitioned from a place to hear from the world to a place to retweet from afar. What does this mean for the future of the global town square?
The great dream of social media was that it would give everyone a voice. From heads of state to ordinary citizens, everyone, no matter where they lived, what they looked like, what their background or place in society was, would be equal. Most importantly, these social platforms would be free to publish to and consume and would not preference the wealthy and powerful over the traditionally disenfranchised.
Elites would no longer control the global conversation. We would finally have our long-elusive vision of communicative democracy. Learn more / En savoir plus / Mehr erfahren: https://www.scoop.it/t/social-media-and-its-influence/?&tag=Twitter

For the first time since the end of 2016, Twitter CEO Jack Dorsey shed some light on the company’s thoughts about building an edit button for tweets. Speaking at an event in India’s capital of New Delhi, he said that the company has to carefully consider use cases for the edit button before making it a reality – and it could potentially be tooled to help fix typos.
“You have to pay attention to what are the use cases for the edit button. A lot of people want the edit button because they want to quickly fix a mistake they made. Like a misspelling or tweeting the wrong URL. That’s a lot more achievable than allowing people to edit any tweet all the way back in time,” Dorsey said.

Le réseau social a annoncé jeudi un bénéfice de 91 millions de dollars pour le quatrième trimestre 2017, une première dans l'histoire de l'entreprise.
Jusqu'à présent, Twitter n'avait jamais généré de bénéfice. (photo: AFP)
Twitter a annoncé jeudi avoir dégagé son premier bénéfice net trimestriel, ce qui a immédiatement dopé l'action du réseau social, dont le modèle économique fait régulièrement l'objet de débats. La société, qui perdait de l'argent depuis son introduction en Bourse en 2013, a dégagé au quatrième trimestre 2017 un bénéfice net se montant à un peu plus de 91 millions de dollars.
Son chiffre d'affaires sur la période a atteint 732 millions de dollars, en hausse de 2% sur un an. «Nous avons atteint notre objectif de rentabilité» et réalisé une «fin d'année solide», s'est félicité le patron Jack Dorsey dans un communiqué. Dans les échanges électroniques avant l'ouverture de Wall Street, l'action Twitter bondissait de 19,66% à 32,20 dollars vers 13h GMT (14h au Luxembourg).
