Twitter unveiled Audience Insights back in May to help brands get a better grasp of the people they reach on the platform. Now the company is upgrading Insights with new demographic data, buying behavior and more. First up, Twitter is introducing something they call ‘personas,’ which are basically quick ways to categorize audiences based on similar attributes. Some of these include ‘millenials,’ ‘baby boomers,’ and ‘business decision-makers.’
Greece is a country that peaked around 400 B.C. and is of no economic importance, even to Europe, much less the world. On top of which, Greece has already defaulted more than five years ago. Neither the word “default” nor the word “bankrupt” have the slightest bit of meaning if they can be neutered merely by someone providing more loans to repay the existing ones. Indeed, a recognized Greek default might even have the salutary effect of alerting governments of the need to tailor fiscal policies so that spending and revenues bear some relationship to each other. If European—and U.S. and Japanese-- governments could learn THAT, a Greek default should qualify for the Nobel Prize for Economics.

What types of content get shared? Great ideas lead to great content, and our research proves that how you choose to execute that content will affect its social traction. We divided the content of articles into five types: how-tos, lists, what-posts, why-posts, and videos. Here's how we defined each post type: How-to posts introduce a problem, offer a solution, and then discuss each step to reach the desired result. Lists are exactly what they sound like -- they focus on a particular topic, offer a number of points about the topic, and provide a brief conclusion. What-posts provide further information on a specific topic, with many articles surrounding comparisons of one thing to another. Why-posts typically provide readers with a reason or purpose and provide details that support a focused conclusion. Videos are also self-explanatory, providing the audience with a dynamic visual of the topic discussed within the article.

Dit is de tweede aankondiging voor de rechtszitting op 30 oktober 2014 om 9.30 uur
Rechtbank Amsterdam, Parnassusweg 220
Het betreft de openbare comparitie van partijen. Degenen die namens alle gedupeerden in de proefprocedure de vraag stellen: is/zijn de bank/banken verantwoordelijk voor de crisis, en daarmee ook voor de enorme schadeposten in de vorm van restschulden?
Vele duizenden mensen in Nederland zitten in de problemen, 200.000 gezinnen met betalingsachterstanden, anderhalf miljoen huishoudens met hun hypotheek onder water. Een politiek die niets doet, anders dan banken redden en banken alle ruimte geven om de Nederlandse economie te gijzelen en mensen te beroven. We hadden onze economie in 2010 kunnen laten klappen, dan waren we er in 2012 bovenop geweest. De huidige aanpak zorgt voor kommer en kwel, nog voor vele komende jaren en duizenden dossiers.
Bij onze Stichting zijn de aantallen gedupeerden niet meer bij te benen. Iedereen probeert individueel uit de ellende te komen, en zoekt daarbij hulp. Maar de kracht zit in het collectief. Daar is de schade ontstaan en daar ligt ook de oplossing.
Wij als Stichting R.E.D. vragen dan ook: Wees aanwezig op de 30e, hoe moeilijk het ook is om vrij te krijgen, hoe moeilijk het ook is om vervoer te regelen, maar komt allen! Daar worden de argumenten van de banken ook aangehoord. Belangrijk is dat u aan de rechter laat zien: dit is ook mijn zaak, dit is ook mijn ellende, en oordeel alstublieft in het recht, kies voor de burger, de consument, en niet voor de banken elite. Wie de schade veroorzaakt moet hem betalen.
Mr. Hulleman is de hele dag aansluitend beschikbaar voor juridische adviezen in Caff Belmondo op het Zuidasplein, mocht u vragen hebben, of zaken willen bespreken.
Wij hopen op een grote opkomst, want alleen dan snapt de rechter: dit betreft de gehele samenleving. Meld u aan bij de rechtbank, dan weten zij hoeveel mensen ze kunnen verwachten. Dat is wel zo netjes.

Have you considered using Instagram for business? Even if you don’t have an Instagram account yourself, chances are you have encountered an image from the site somewhere on the web. Instagram might be known for its different photo filters, but there’s a reason it is one of the most popular photo sharing platforms around. Currently the app has over 200 million active monthly users who actively visit the site multiple times per day. This is due in part to its seamless integration with mobile devices and relatively straightforward and intuitive interface. Many businesses are turning to Instagram as another social platform to reach their audience. In fact, around 75 percent of leading brands currently have a presence on the site with this number climbing steadily.

Bill Gates, of Bill and Melinda Gates Foundation has announced a remote controlled implantable birth control chip that could last up to 16 years.

Langer connected the Gate’s Foundation with MicroCHIPS, a Massachusetts firm licensed to use a controlled-release microchip technology.

The chips will be ready for sale in market in the early 2018, with safety tests starting by the end of this year.
The growth of mobile and wearable devices. Each year, the percentage of online searches performed on mobile devices has grown definitively, and as you might imagine, the majority of mobile searches are performed while on the go. With the dawn of wearable devices, such as the Apple Watch, users will start using on-the-go searches even more frequently, with even more immediate needs. As a result, proximity-based searches will likely start to become popular, and local searches will be based on hyper-specific locations, rather than just on a regional or neighborhood-specific basis. In effect, wearable devices will drive a much more geographically relevant network of information and eliminate even more barriers between the digital and physical worlds.
So you’re all excited about your shiny new video. It’s all finished and you’re looking forward to the results and the benefits of corporate video. Surely things couldn’t get any better?
