n now coming to the some/most of FB’s potential along with Cue/Greplin and Kitedesk-Do u think fb can b the info and communication centre while greplin/cue and kitedesk can be more than organisers of different applications’ content like from gmail, facebook, google calendar, salesforce, twitter, linkedin and so on – they can be used for searching information/content via social media and other applications? facebook/fb has docs application within it. that application is MS docs and it was MS’ answer to Google Docs for cloud computing instead of each time getting the MS Office from stores and then saving the application on to the computer. MS Docs has the PDF within it (it’s their customised version because PDF even though was started by Adobe, other firms have their customised versions). FB also has Skype within it because MS owns Skype and MS is a partner as well as an investor of FB. on top of that, there’s the Spotify app n other apps under FB (like Apple, Android n rest). in addition, fb has pages including updates of firms, organisations, news n resources including latest real-time investment quotes and so on. fb like apple, amazon, google, etc have changed business models, industries, lifestyles and so on-they have already taken over the entertainment and publishing worlds, used by marketing, education, health, finance n other sectors. some of the pages on fb r ‘the economist’, ‘mining.com ‘, ‘news.com.au’, ‘smh’, ‘business insider’, ‘visual.ly’, ‘global financial data’,’history channel’, ‘national geographic channel’. there r others in other areas-fashion, arts, books, humanities, politics n so on. these pages come from different sites (sometimes the pages maybe started by individuals without sites also). the only issue is not all the updates (articles,news,etc) from these sites r on the fb pages.

also, greplin/cue and kitedesk have said that they are 3rd party applications which organise different applications’ content from gmail, facebook, google calendar, salesforce, twitter, linkedin and so on according to time n date though they actually do more than just organising people’s social events or schedule-they actually search content even from fb pages as well as from the messages n more from fb , gmail n so on. cue n kitedesk don’t give out an individual’s content on those applications to the public unlike kurrently and other 3rd party social media and apps search. kurrently and other 3rd party search already there though they don’t search like greplin/cue and kitedesk. kurrently and others are like any of the search engines though the search engines use algorithms to give the searches and rank them from page to page while kurrently and other searches with social media (facebook, linkedin, twitter and some apps) just pick any random person’s message and send it off according to date and time (they are organized like greplin/cue and kitedesk). LASTLY, KITEDESK is more than search and organising which cue/greplin does. SO CAN FB b the info and communication centre (if ‘the economist’, ‘mining.com ‘, ‘news.com.au’, ‘smh’, ‘business insider’, ‘visual.ly’, ‘global financial data’,’history channel’, ‘national geographic channel’, etc put all the content incl media within fb incl real-time news incl investment/financial quotes)? AND CAN GREPLIN/CUE AND KITEDESK be more than organisers of different applications’ content like from gmail, facebook, google calendar, salesforce, twitter, linkedin and so on – they can be used for searching information/content via social media and other applications?

IF ABOUT PRIVACY ISSUES WHICH MOST PEOPLE FIND WITH PERSONAL DATA-it’s been going on for decades.2 videos on youtube SHOW THAT-apple’s commercial response to ibm big brother 1984 and The Surveillance Society: 1984 Came 25 Years Late-both videos on YouTube. tech firms NOT ONLY 1s WITH PRIVACY ISSUES-marketing,banks,etc all have-look at TED TALKS-‘tracking the trackers’ video-As you surf the Web, information is being collected about you. Gary Kovacs, CEO of Mozilla gives this video. Customer-centric approach alone finished in 80s and Innovative approach which has controversies with privacy has gone ahead since 80s-cloud computing;virtual reality; social media; apps world; etc have just increased the privacy controversies especially when Apple, Amazon, IBM, Google, FB, etc have those controversies within their defaults THOUGH THE COMPANIES HAVE ALSO PROVIDED SETTINGS TO CHANGE FROM DEFAULTS. use settings incl for creating lists n not getting every1’s updates under news feeds n also for keeping the contact lists separate so that posts in 1 list not shown to the other list + also for not getting news feeds cluttered n so on – fb like any other social network/media, tech n other firm has provided settings – just need to fiddle a bit n use the different features – very useful for enjoying as it has skype, spotify n so on as mentioned before. have my pages under news feeds with few people’s updates under notifications or news feeds-rest under lists and not cluttered news feeds for personal and page news/updates as most personal chats under lists/notifications, not news feeds. also, can use cue n kitedesk for searching. the reason i put all under lists and just few of them under news feeds is because of the status updates (some love using fb like twitter where keep updating their statuses so that’s why have that). also, my close friends’ updates goes under notifications. my acquaintances’ updates as well as my relatives’ updates excluding my gf’s, sis’ and bro’s updates all under lists. my sis’, bro’s and gf’s updates only ones under newsfeeds. i also do use the full potential of fb for these pages-science including health and tech, business, education, politics and so on. in the beginning, they weren’t cluttered but after adding some pages, they have though get all the facebook updates from all pages. CAN SEARCH THE PAGES/UPDATES FROM THE PAGES, INCLUDING MESSAGES AND SO ON THROUGH 3RD PARTY APPS LIKE CUE/GREPLIN AND KITEDESK. i also use SPOTIFY, DOCS APP (MS DOCS INCLUDING PDF-MS’ ANSWER TO GOOGLE DOCS) WITHIN FACEBOOK AND SO ON.

PROMOTING STATUS UPDATES DOESN’T MEAN FRIENDS WHO HAVEN’T CHANGED SETTINGS CAN’T SEE THEM-THEY CAN; ONLY THOSE WHO HAVE CHANGED SETTINGS MAY NOT SEE THEM-PROMOTING ALLOWS FOR ALL FRIENDS/CONTACTS LINKED TO SEE INCLUDING THOSE WHO HAVE CHANGED SETTINGS
