I have tried the recently announced changes on facebook user homepage. At first sight, you will definitely get confused unless you follow a graphical guide you’ll find at the top of the home page. But, after reviewing and actually using these updates, I found them very useful, smooth, and easy to use.
THREE MAJOR CHANGES:
1- Updates time line:
A dynamic timeline that loads the “twitter way” showing recent updates at the top. This timeline will show at the top right side for your facebook homepage. Below is a screen shot of hovering an update, and getting its details displayed:
2- Custom lists:
Have ever wanted to list your friends into limited access, close friends, workmates, family members..etc to view updates from that specific list? As well as targeting them with specific status updates or walls posts? facebook custom lists now give you this feature. Below are two screen shots I have taken while creating a list for friends interested in receiving Blog37 updates.
3- Top Stories marking
Yes, you can mark stories in the timeline to be Top Stories showing always at the top of the page. Some stories will be initially marked as Top stories, I’m not sure on what basis, but I think it’s based on the level of people interaction with that specific post/article/story. Below is a screen shot of how to set a recent story into a top story, on your own feed!
I received a tweet from a friend informing me about this new online pharmacy, DOWA, the first online pharmacy in Kuwait. To be honest, two questions popped into my mind, and I was really happy to find the answers in DOWA’s FAQs section:
This is enough for anyone to consider Dowa.co really trustworthy. Good luck guys
Twitter has announced two days ago the new Web Analytics, a tool that helps website owners to understand how much traffic is driven from twitter to their sites as well as how much of their website content is being shared over twitter. Analysis also include the effectiveness of their lately launched “Follow button“. The new tool is to be launched within the few upcoming weeks.
I’ve been looking for this for over a month now, and I finally found it in X-Cite at a very good price (KD 33 – %20 discount = KD 26.750). This is the best solution if you’re living in a typical Kuwaiti house, where “nuclear-war resistant concrete” walls surround you!
Installation was very simple, plugged it to power, turn it on, accessed the control panel wirelessly. You’ll have the option to either use the main router access credentials, or even set new login information for the extender itself. My original home WiFi was really impossible to reach, but with this new toy I can move around freely with full internet access.
Brand: NETGEAR Model number: WN2000RPT Where to find it: X-Cite Alghanim Price: KD 33 – %20 discount = KD 26.750 (I think this is a limited time offer)
It’s not about “The social network” movie! I’m creating this poll to assist me in a research I’m working on, so I assume that most of you, if not all, have facebook accounts or at least an account in any other social website. So, help? Please?
