Tweet Attacks Pro II - The New Best Twitter Tool for Instant Traffic and Money! - Video
San Francisco, CA (PRWEB) January 21, 2014
Discoverly, a pioneer in cross-platform social networking, today announced the launch of a new personal productivity tool that integrates Facebook and LinkedIn to give users a complete view of their social connections and surface network opportunities that werent visible before.
Discoverly is a San Francisco-based startup enabling social media users to make better use of their social data. Backed by Salesforce and Yammer leadership, the company just announced the launch of a new browser extension available for free in the Chrome store.
For social media users with relationships across multiple platforms, its increasingly difficult to see the full potential of their network. No one place has a complete view of a social media users relationships. The Discoverly Chrome Extension offers a solution to that issue by connecting Facebook and LinkedIn to provide cross-social data about a users connections. The tool highlights mutual Facebook friends with a LinkedIn contact and shows LinkedIn work information related to a Facebook profile.
We all have close friends on Facebook, but people rarely share their work history. On the other hand, LinkedIn has great work history, but the relationships are often weak. We thought why not bring the best of each network to the other? says Ted Summe, founder of Discoverly, So, we did!
The emerging market promises a rising need for cross-platform social networking. In 2 years, 55% of the US Workforce will be under the age of 35. This demographic engages in 2 to 4 social networks on average, with 86% of 18-29 years olds on Facebook and 60% of LinkedIn's user under the age 35. Discoverly could become an essential tool for the young generation who grew up with social media and continues to enter the workforce.
Chrome users interested in trying the new Discoverly extension can install it from http://discover.ly/chrome and the chrome store.

Discoverly Makes First Product Launch, Introduces New Productivity Tool Using Social Data
Computerworld A bizarre case of social networking coming up against local police has arisen in Massachusetts, where a 32-year-old Beverly man was jailed because Google+ sent an email using his name without his knowledge. Turns out Google+ sent it to the man's former fiancee, who had a restraining order against him, prohibiting all contact.
Now that must have been an interesting conversation with police. "No, Officer, honest. I didn't send it. The social networking site I use sent it, all on its own. Funny, huh? [Pause] No, the handcuffs aren't too tight." A Massachusetts judge is now trying to clean the case up.
Although that example is certainly extreme, Google+ is far from the only company that wants to send messages on behalf of customers without their knowledge. When Starbucks announced a program with Twitter late last year, it required customers to link their Twitter and Starbucks accounts. Why? "By linking your accounts, you authorize Starbucks to access your Twitter account and post on Twitter on your behalf. If your Twitter account settings are set to 'protected,' you will need to go to Twitter and change this setting in order to send an eGift using the Program."
Both Facebook and LinkedIn also seem to send out missives in their users' names and without their knowledge. Facebook users have been complaining about friend requests going to people they never invited, and LinkedIn participants have at times learned that invites had gone out under their name without their knowledge.
The social sites usually say that such automatic behavior was accepted by their users, who didn't object when notified. But the notifications are in teeny-tiny print that goes unnoticed in routine email alerts ostensibly about something inoffensive, if not downright boring. You know the kind of thing I'm talking about: "We are thrilled to tell you today -- in this 19,000-word email -- about why we chose this shade of blue for our homepage. Let's go through a detailed analysis of every other shade that we considered." With a start like that, not many people are going to get to the part 20 pages in where the company casually slips in something actually worth knowing, such as, "In the unlikely event you ever say the word 'like' between noon and 11 p.m. EST, you have signed over all of your worldly possessions to us." Or that the company will be contacting the users' friends, families and business associates to do a little marketing in the users' names.

TORONTO Facebook is holding its spot as the most dominant social network on the webdespite recent reports of major losses to its teen audience, according to the Global Web Indexs (GWI) quarterly report on global trends in social media.
The social networking giant topped the GWIs list for account ownership and active users, 56 per cent of whom log in more than once a day to check their friends status updates.
The study is based on responses from 170,000 users in 32 countries.
The report also showed that Facebook had high usage of its official mobile apps, with 69 per cent of people using the mobile app and 37 per cent using the Facebook Messenger app.
But, the GWI notes that the extent of the social networks decline has been significantly over-exaggerated in some reports.
According to its data, Facebook only saw a three per cent decrease in active usage last year.
The majority of the buzz surrounding Facebooks usage decline comes from reports that the social networks once dominant teen user base is moving away from the site in favour of more app-based social networks like Instagram and Snapchat.
