?? Sådan klarede de danske medier sig på Facebook i 2018
Jan Birkemose fra Medietrends har lavet en opgørelse over 48 danske mediers ageren og effekt på Facebook i 2018. Af tallene kan vi se, at TV 2 havde flest interaktioner, mens DR P3 har den højeste interaktions-rate, hvor antallet af følgere regnes med i ligningen.
↩️ Messenger får “unsend”-funktion
I Ugerevyen fra uge 45 kunne du læse, at Facebook barslede med en “unsend”-funktion i Messenger – altså muligheden for at trække sendte beskeder tilbage.
Nu er den her så:
Facebook has finally made good on its promise to let users unsend chats after TechCrunch discovered Mark Zuckerberg had secretly retractedsome of his Facebook Messages from recipients. Today Facebook Messenger globally rolls out “Remove for everyone” to help you pull back typos, poor choices, embarrassing thoughts or any other message.

I forbindelse med ovenstående har Nieman Lab kigget på 10 vigtige øjeblikket i Facebooks forhold til mediebranchen.
Og det er ikke uden humor:
Why only 10 on its 15th birthday? Recently, we discovered an error in our internal metrics that may have overstated the number of items on this list. We are very sorry for anyone affected; we take any mistake seriously.
? Hvad nu, hvis Facebook havde taget betaling..?
…ville Facebook så ikke have været mindre afhængig af annoncer og derved hevet mindre data ud af brugerne? Sådan lyder en af de gamle “what-ifs” omkring Facebook, og The Information har sat sig for at undersøge spørgsmålet.
Og så nemt er det ikke at gøre op, lyder det fra folk i og omkring Facebook.
Derudover kigger artiklen også på, om Facebook kunne have grebet ind med mere indholdsmoderering tidligere i forløbet.
? Snart kan Facebook-brugere se, hvordan annoncer når dem
Facebook this month will add a feature to its app and website that lets users see how their contact information is used for ad targeting. Users on Feb. 28 can activate the new Custom Audiences featureby clicking on the “Why am I seeing this?” button in the drop-down menu on posts, TechCrunch reported.
?? Tyskland begrænser Facebooks dataindsamling
In a direct challenge to Facebook’s business model, Germany’s competition authority on Thursday sharply curtailed how the tech giant may profile people, saying that users could refuse to allow the company to combine their Facebook information with data about their activities on other sites.
✋ Facebook dropper ‘ad set’-budgetter
Facebook advertisers are currently able to set budgets by ad set within a campaign, but, starting in September, when ad campaigns migrate to campaign budget optimization, advertisers will only be able to set budgets on a campaign level.
? ‘The Social Network’ var mere spot-on, end vi vidste
Now, nearly a decade later and 15 years into the life of Facebook, I think I’ve realized something: The Social Networkwas right. Not necessarily historically accurate—only the people who were in the room know those truths—but about its messages: privacy matters (whether you’re taking photos from a sorority web site or giving access to user data), connection comes with consequences, the tech boom gave an enormous amount of power to people who’d never touched it before.

? Her er skaberen af det berømte Instagram-æg
When Chris Godfrey learned in early January that the record for “likes” on an Instagram post was held by the celebrity and businesswoman Kylie Jenner, he took it as a challenge. He remembers thinking: “Could something as universal and simple as an egg be great enough to beat that record?”

Essentially, the app uses an Elo rating system, which is the same method used to calculate the skill levels of chess players: You rise in the ranks based on how many people swipe right on (“like”) you, but that’s weighted based on who the swiper was. The more right swipes that person had, the more their right swipe on you means for yourscore.

As early as 2015, it’s claimed to block 99.9 percent of spam, phishing, and malware from reaching accounts with the help of artificial neural networks (layers of math functions loosely modeled after neurons in the brain), all while ensuring the share of legitimate mail that inadvertently ends up in spam folders stays below 0.05 percent. […] And now Google says that, thanks in part to “new protections” powered by its open source machine learning framework TensorFlow, it’s blocking around 100 million additional spam messages every day.
