How to use Facebook mentions app

Facebook introduces Mentions app for verified accounts

Facebook is now expanding its Mentions and live blogging app to more users which as of now, is only available on the iOS App Store. Theplatform, which was previously available for certain celebrities such as musicians and actors will now be open to any individual with a verified account Mentions account . according to the Facebook Blog, you can report from the scene with Live, host a Q&A and connect in real-time with your followers. You can also check out what people are saying about you and other topics you follow. In addition, you can also see what topics are currently trending on Facebook.

The new Mentions app will also let you too choose the audience you want to share your text, links, photos or anything else. For example, Facebook states that you can share a post so only your followers see it in News Feed. With this attempt, Facebook wants more and more journalists to use its platform as their distribution channel of choice.
This will allow them to post live to Facebook during breaking news or to host live Q&As with followers as well.

Users with a verified profile can log in with their Facebook credentials to start connecting with their followers but if you’re a public figure and believe your Page or profile should be verified, you can fill out this form.

The whole deal is to make it simpler for people with verified pages to manage their Facebook account by viewing posts that mention them. It will also help these people to respond more quickly and easily via the dedicated app. Facebook Mentions also shows a timeline of posts that reference the particular user.

Facebook calls it an authentic way to connect with fans. Besides access to the video on NewsFeed, people who have recently interacted with a celebrity’s posts will receive a notification when the broadcast begins.

Goodbye, Wi-Fi! Li-Fi Just Got Tested And It’s 100 Times Faster!

Things are going to get very interesting in the coming months. The way we access internet can completely change forever. Well, that’s what scientists are telling us anyway. Remember this word.
– ‘Li-Fi’; it’s going to be used very often soon enough. What is it you ask?
Li-Fi is a wireless technology that transmits high-speed(insanely high-speed) data using visible light communication, or VLC.
So imagine switching on a bulb in your room, and it’ll not only be a source of light, but will also transmit wireless internet to your phones and other devices.
Madness, I tell you.Scientists claim that they are achieving speeds of up to224 gigabytes per second in the lab using Li-Fi earlier this year. This would mean a revolution in the world of videos.
Now, scientists have taken Li-Fi out of the lab for the first time, testing it in offices and industrial environments  in Tallinn, Estonia. They are claiming that they can achieve speeds of up to 1 Gb per second at a work environment. Just to put that into perspective, that is 100 times faster than the average Wi-Fi speeds that we currently have around the world.The technology uses Visible Light Communication (VLC), a medium that uses visible light between 400 and 800 terahertz (THz).
It works basically like an incredibly advanced form of Morse code – just like switching a torch on and off according to a certain pattern can relay a secret message, flicking an LED on and off at extreme speeds can be used to write and transmit things in binary code.

“We are doing a few pilot projects within different industries where we can utilise the VLC (visible light communication) technology,” Deepak Solanki, CEO of Estonian tech company, Velmenni, told IBTimes UK.“Currently we have designed a smart lighting solution for an industrial environment where the data communication is done through light. We are also doing a pilot project with a private client where we are setting up a Li-Fi network to access the Internet in their office space.

”Invented by Harald Haas from the University of Edinburgh, Scotland back in 2011, Haas demonstrated how the flickering light from a single LED could transmit far more data than a cellular tower! 224 gigabytes per second! 18 movies of 1.5 GB each getting downloaded every second. Hmm, not bad eh?There are more positives than just speed. Think about it, because light cannot pass through walls, you don’t have to worry about your pesky neighbour trying to hack into your internet and stealing data. It’s a lot more secure. Experts, however, don’t feel that this will phase out Wi-Fi. Instead, the two technologies could be used together to achieve more efficient and secure networks.
“All we need to do is fit a small microchip to every potential illumination device and this would then combine two basic functionalities: illumination and wireless data transmission,” Haas said. “In the future we will not only have 14 billion light bulbs, we may have 14 billion Li-Fis deployed worldwide for a cleaner, greener, and even brighter future.” If this technology does pan out, and it comes to India, it would mean everyone who has an LED light bulb would have accessto the internet.Watch Haas’s TED talk explaining the technology, right here

New Glass bridge in Taiwan

New Glass Bridge in Taiwan

rewards thrill-seekers with amazing view of autumn leavesA new glass-bottomed bridge, with awe-inspiring view of copper-tinged autumnal trees, has become an instant hit with thrill-seeking tourists after opening in Nantou, Taiwan.This 88-meter-long bridge, suspended above a picturesque valley, offers not only an adrenaline rush from the jaw-dropping height but also a spectacular view of the red autumn leaves.

Civil servant Hanson Mao, 35, was able to snap these pictures of people using the bridge for the first time.Glass-bottomed walkway bridges are now all the rage in China, withmore and more tourism sites constructing thrilling glass bridges to attract visitors.A new 590-foot-high glass-bottomed suspension bridge was openedin September in Yuntai Mountain of north China’s Hebei Province.

A viewing platform in Chongqing of southwest China, with a breath-taking 718-meter drop to the ground below, was completed earlier this year and became the world's longest cantilever walkway with a glass bottom.

China’s fast-expanding express way network

China’s fast-expanding express way network China’s express way network is an integrated system of national and provincial-level expressways.
It is the world's largest expressway system by length, having surpassed the overall length of the American Interstate Highway System in 2011.
The building of expressways is seen as a key to accelerating infrastructure construction in China.
Signs on the expressways in the country are usually marked with both Simplified Chinese and English (except for some areas).‪#‎
