Ailing Facebook missed shift in social networking feed driven content

While TikTok is banking on its advanced algorithm, Facebook has failed to keep up with the rapid shift in the feed-driven social networking to discover content of interest. Recently, Meta CEO Mark Zuckerberg confessed that he failed to predict the new trend. 

As opposed to relying on recommendations by friends and family, people are more focused on discovering content of their interest via social networking feeds. It is all about getting the most compelling content irrespective of its form, whether a short video, text, or image.

Ever hungry for newer and more interesting content, people have seen a paradigm shift in their choices for more information in the past few years. While, they still like the content shared by their friends online, a higher preference is being given to social networking feeds. 

It is more like everyone is interested in discovering their own preferred content based on certain likes and dislikes. It is not about who creates, but rather what is being offered. TikTok seemed to have understood this new pattern among users early on. It designed its algorithm such that the recommender system focuses on compelling videos based on historical data and habits of its users.

As Zuckerberg sees TikTok as a tough competitor, he is planning to work on more advanced AI to recommend photos, text along with short videos. Facebook appears to be losing ground with more users ditching the platform and the company has already lost over 56% of its stock price this year.

Uttarkashi Tunnel Rescue – A Story of Human Value

Life begins in a closed chamber-like place called womb, but the one being nurtured and prepared to be brought into this world is not conscious of its existence or rather not aware of a world which is full of light. What about those who are trapped in a similar condition, but are fully aware of the world outside? Would it not be suffocating to live in a dark place with little hope to see the bright life they were used to just a few days ago? Uttarkashi tunnel that collapsed and trapped 41 workers is such a story, a reminder that how fortunate and privileged we are for all that the mother nature has given us. And yet, rather than being grateful, we take these gifts for granted as if they don’t matter! The Indian government took every measure to rescue 41 workers trapped inside the Silkyara-Barkot tunnel in Uttarkashi and finally the operation that lasted over 400 hours was successful. The rescue operation was performed by seven government agencies including PM’s office, National Disaster

Canada – safe haven for criminals & terrorists

When a country deliberately spoils its relations with another, it also turns a blind eye to wrongdoers taking advantage of the situation. Canada, under the leadership of PM Justin Trudeau, has been burning its bridges by constantly targeting India, when the entire world sees the latter as a peace-loving nation with great business opportunities. PM Trudeau has constantly made baseless remarks against India on different issues including wrong allegations stating Indian government’s involvement in the killing of Hardeep Singh Nijjar, a pro-Khalistani. With increasing crime rate, Canada is slowly becoming a breeding ground for terrorist groups, gangs and local criminals. India released a long list of individuals, suspected to have links with gangs operating out of Canada, and also offered a dossier. However, Canada ignored all of these without any action as the country was busy maligning India’s global reputation. Canada has openly supported Khalistan movement by showing its support to
