Facebook for iPhone

After many rumors, which we brought you here , and delays and delays that are suffering the Facebook app for iPhone, now a new possibility deck is slowly gaining strength.

Pages United States believes that the new facebook application may appear on the presentation of the new iPhone . Presentation has been confirmed by Apple a few minutes ago for the 4th of October. This presentation will incorporate the new facebook application as a native application for iPhone. We recall that in the presentation of iOS 5, was in the social network Twitter as a native application, and although Apple has not yet ruled on Facebook, this could become part of their applications.

Although it seems a reasonable move by both companies, we know that Apple and Facebook does not always have understood, so that we can not ensure that this is going to meet. Although what we can say is that very soon we will all doubt in the event that we have prepared the October 4th.

Anonymous prepares to hit Facebook and Fox 5

Known in the UK as Guy Fawkes Day, Nov. 5 will be a day very “special” by Anonymous if you end up doing all the actions announced. That day could have up to three different fronts will be directed to Facebook, the news network Fox News and the demonstration against the financial system.

Perhaps the time has passed since the announcement, the social network attack is the most remembered by all. On August 11 it was announced via YouTube that Anonymous started up the Operation Facebook , an attack in retaliation for the controversial privacy settings of the company and “selling user information to government agencies so they can spy “.

Popout

As before, the attack scheduled for November 5 has been refuted by other members replicating that is not true. In any case, X-ray of the group itself, without grouping or origin, because anyone can take part, always result in denials and confirmations. This makes it clear that there is no evidence that it will attack the social network but the ad is clear.

In the same way and through two videos, Anonymous summons the various calls on supporters to protest the current financial system focusing on the banks. Titled Operation Cash Back two weeks ago announced a series of demonstrations. This Saturday was Operation Cash Run, same with different title.

Popout

Both operations are part of the movement known as Move Your Money, a platform which calls for close personal accounts with major international banks.

Finally, Anonymous announced a new front for the important day. Here is the news network Fox News under the title Operation Fox Hunt and the resulting video on YouTube.

Popout

The reason is simply to attack what they call the “propaganda of the conservative right” and their attacks Occupy movements that have taken place. Only wait to see if this finally occur November 5 this series of attacks, or if instead it was simply fakes on the net with which to scare these companies.

Facebook to test smart lists look like Google +

We recognize, if we follow a little overview of social networks in the past year, Google + has introduced some revolutionary concepts that has removed a sector that was somewhat stagnant. Mostly because of the selection of simple circles and management of privacy. The downside of these innovations is that it is relatively easy for competitors to adapt these concepts to their websites, as seems to be doing Facebook with smart lists (Smart Lists).

Some users elect have started to see a new section on the website of Zuckerberg’s social network through which they are shown some users automatically grouped by the page itself in three areas: co-workers, classmates and local friends. We say well when using the term automatically grouped because unlike Google + is not the user who decides and gives names to these groups (or circles) but is the social network itself that performs the action for us.

Apparently the election of members in each group is based on the way we interact with them. It should be easy for an algorithm to analyze the commentators of a post and its subject matter to decide these issues. Although, logically, then allowed himself a member of the network to modify the group members at will, because it may be that one is in the wrong place.

Interesting is the group called “local friends” because it includes individuals who are within 80 miles around, in a clear effort to enhance services in-house geolocated website. Already we are imagining local advertising aimed at this particular group? Probably one of your applications.

Anyway it is a very important change. They are obviously the beginning, if it has made available a few conceivable that the service is under testing and will shortly receive further changes. From simple how Facebook could eliminate one of the main differences that separates Google +! If this system is an element of attracting Internet users to the community created in Mountain View, Zuckerberg could annihilate at a stroke.

What could come from here? The following logical steps are to create custom groups beyond the three that come by default, and integrating them on the home page to access the network to make it very easy for anyone to post to each set without affecting the rest. We will be alert to new developments on this issue, because it seems a very interesting news.
