Given how Facebook has been fond of the 24-hours news cycle, it’s also clear through Facebook Stories as to how they’d like to be seen as a primary but dynamic source.

It’s also also obvious that through Instant Articles and Trending section that they are serious about presenting the latest news to users without them having to leave the site.

And now, Facebook has introduced a new platform called Signal that will help journalists to not only discover but embed their content.

A company blog post by Andy Mitchell, introduces the tool, in saying, “Today we’re excited to introduce Signal, for Facebook and Instagram, a free discovery and curation tool for journalists who want to source, gather, and embed newsworthy content from Facebook and Instagram, across news, culture, entertainment, sports, and more—all in one place.”

This is clearly also the latest move to target professional content creators. It was only last week that Facebook introduced its new Mentions app to all of its verified profiles. This app allows both journalists and celebrities to not only broadcast live video streams but also prepare posts that only their followers can see.

One reason why Signal is so useful is because it offers journalists a highly sorted list of newsfeeds of public content.

At this point, Trending topics are based on users personal interests and what they like but with Signal, journalists will get a broader spread of what is trending. Journalists will also know which topics are going viral through a new feature called Emerging Trends.

Even if it looks like Tweetdeck, this tool marks a major move towards Facebook becoming a major hub for news discovery. This tool can only help journalists publish their articles using Facebook as a result – a symbiotic relationship of sorts.


Apple has just announced that it has sold 13 million iPhones – the iPhone 6s or iPhone 6s Plus – just over the first weekend after its release.

This is a new record for the company as it sold almost 10 million units in 2014 and 9 million units prior to that.

In comparison, the iPhone 6s and iPhone 6s Plus were sold in China on the first day of its launch both in 2013 and this year. This did not happen in 2014 as it was launched in the same country only two or three weeks after the launch of the 5s or 5s Plus models.

Yet overall, the recent launch sold about 3000 phones per minute or 50 phones per second. These numbers are phenomenal given that Apple hasn’t even provided numbers related to its new iPhone Upgrade Program. For those who don’t know, it is a 24-month payment program that allows you to upgrade to a new iPhone every year.

Apart from this, Apple announced that its latest model will be available in 40 new countries starting October 9. This includes countries such as Taiwan, Spain, Russia, Mexico and Italy. As a whole, Apple will sell these devices in almost 130 countries by the time 2015 comes to a close.

It must be said that the new iPhone has come with a number of improvements. Some of these include a faster chip, better camera, a quicker Touch ID and Touch 3D. In fact, 3D Touch can literally change the way you use your phone.


Summary: Understand the process of DNA synthesis with this guide.

DNA synthesis is a process in which nucleic acid strands are copied and made. With the advanced technological mechanisms and engineering processes, DNA synthesis can be achieved through man-made equipment. Improvements in the field of synthesis have been growing exponentially as innovation has been peaking in the scientific world. From breakthroughs in medicine to the production of advanced chemicals, DNA synthesis can often be misused when in the wrong hands and can prove to be a threat in society.

Understanding the process of DNA synthesis can be confusing and misleading, especially in comparison to RNA synthesis, but by recognizing the structure of the DNA, you will have more insight on how it works.

DNA is essentially a long chain polymer made up of nucleotides. What DNA does is it carries information regarding the synthesis of protein in living organisms. When it comes to replicating DNA it begins with the parent molecule unzipping itself. This then leads to hydrogen bonds and the base pairs being broken. Sequences of bases on the strands that are separated become a guide to the insertion of a complementary separate set of bases on the now synthesized strands. Deoxynucleoside triphosphates are the ones responsible for the assembly of the new strands. Incoming nucleotides link on to a free carbon atom which is then assembled together in order of the bases. The strands still continue to guide the nucleotides in a specific order. After the entire process, you end up with two identical DNA molecules that are mirror images of themselves.

Top-Mistakes-that-Startup-Businesses-MakeWhen people talk about startup businesses, you mostly hear about their successes and the large amounts of money that they are pooling together from sales. Do you know how they got there? They planned ahead and didn’t make mistakes such as catering to a small market or not having a proper business plan. If you are planning a startup business, be sure not to make these mistakes that can put a hold or even completely halt your entire plan.

Overanalyzing your Product

One of the primary goals of business is to generate revenue. Too many times entrepreneurs will lose their focus on selling their product and tinker with it too much, losing money in the process. You’ll run out of money and energy before it even hits the market.

Overfunding Advertisements

Advertising your product is a key factor in public exposure. Words tend to spread like a wildfire at times. This doesn’t mean you should spend over $1000 on an ad campaign that will net you $50 from one lead that is paying a non-committal monthly contract. Balancing your ad revenue with your capital is important so you don’t lose all of your assets. Test the market and see how you can generate revenue that exceeds the amount that you spend on marketing.

Choose a market with promise and stability. Even if you’re the smaller player in the in the field, it’s better to create that foundation where you can grow from the bottom up.

When it comes to building an online business you can be proud of, it should probably go without saying that you absolutely need a few features no matter what kind of business you’re trying to run. There are all kinds of ways you can leverage each and every one of them, of course, but the point is that, just like real stores, virtual ones have a few key ingredients you must invest in if you are to succeed.

Secureshop2One of these features is ecommerce cart software. It basically gives your customers the same opportunity they would have if they were to shop in a real store and wanted to put items into a shopping cart before finally checking out. A website shopping cart makes it possible for them to do this in the most convenient matter.

However, the other great thing about the right shopping cart program is that you can also use it for upselling your customers too. As they put things in their car, you can automatically show them other products they may wish to buy and even give them special deals when they do so.

The final result is that your customers get a better experience while you benefit from greater profits.
