Of course that Google's reply didn't let itself waited, to the nastiness from TechCrunch, you remember which one, the "Google Plus is a Walking Dead" or something like that, by the co-editor Alexia Tsotsis. Google's Yonatan Zunger, said in an article on Blogger platform based Google Plus Daily that Tsotsis' statements are BS, because nothing changes after Vic Gundotra's departure, on the contrary, they are improving the future mega Social Media platform to marvelous features, and Tsotsis has … [Read more...]
Ocean Governance
At the end of February, between 24-26, took place the “World Ocean Summit 2014”, an event organized by “The Economist” Magazine and some world leaders too.

By celebrities, I mean the already known people on the internet at the moment, be them good or bad, the "verified", the rock stars, the "winning" actors, the bunch of Grogans or Kim Kardashian.

Author Rank? What For?

This change overwhelms people, he believed, the accelerated rate of technological and social change leaving people disconnected and suffering from "shattering stress and disorientation"— future shocked. Toffler stated that the majority of social problems are symptoms of future shock. In his discussion of … [Read more...]
