Which Social Networks Should You Care About in 2014 and few detailed infographic view about Facebook ,twitter,you-tube,goggle+ ... from 2014

It’s hard to believe that Facebook will be ten years old this February and yet social media still seems new to many of us. Brands are struggling as much as they ever have done to understand what to do with it, and which networks actually have any real value. I noticed a number of social challenges that brands faced in 2013 but probably the two most common questions I got asked were:

1. Which social networks should I focus on?
2. How much of my time and resources should I allocate to each one?

The answers to these questions are not as complicated as people often think, but neither is there correct answer to either of them. Many people have written blog posts suggesting that they have the answer – but rather than add my own opinions to that long list, I thought I’d just look at the data to see where the world seems to have been spending it’s time over the last 12 years. (Infographic created in Adobe Photoshop obviously!)…

The figures… source by backtohack

I’ve purposely focused here on the total number of user profiles for each network*. I did this purely for the sake of comparison (rather than daily / monthly active users), so before anyone bursts a blood vessel and calls me out in the comments, let’s save the messy debate around active v inactive fans for another time. All I want to do here is look at which social networks people have chosen to join over the last decade or so.

 The figures themselves highlight a couple of interesting points that social media executives often miss:

• There are almost as many social profiles just among these 21 networks, as there are people in the world!
• Many business people forget that China has 3 of the world’s largest and most powerful social networks. (Sina Weibo for example has the same market penetration in China that Twitter does in the US).
• Some of the Middle Eastern brands I spoke to last year told me that YouTube was far more valuable to their brand than either Twitter and Facebook, and they built their social strategies accordingly.
• Many Spanish brands have chosen to focus their efforts on the local network Tuenti instead of Facebook.
• The oldest social network on the list Friendster, has a surprisingly large and active fan base (admittedly now with a different purpose than it was created for).
• Bebo is still going and planning to be properly re-launched again by original co-founder Michael Birch.
• Google+ (the network we all like to poke fun at), has become the place for commenting on YouTube.
• Market analysts suggested in 2013 that Pinterest (not even 4 years old), had double the click-through-rate of Twitter and drove 2x the average order value of Facebook, even though it only has 5% of the user base.
• Russian network VK is bigger than Instagram globally with a massive 228m registered users.
• SnapChat (hacking issues aside), 2013 saw more photos distributed on SnapChat (up to 400m each day) than there was on Facebook.
• But… old-timer Orkut (the forgotten Brazilian network owned by Google) is still “bigger” than the trendy new kid on the block SnapChat.

“All of this is very interesting, but just because these appear to be the world’s largest networks, still doesn’t mean you should be paying attention to them…”

Facebook, Twitter, and others reset user logins after hacker steals 2 million passwords & Techno Tips: Guide to protecting Internet accounts

Facebook, Twitter, and others reset user login's after hacker steals 2 million passwords

A hacker  has netted more than 2 million passwords for users of major services including Facebook, Gmail, Twitter, Yahoo, and LinkedIn, according to the security firm Trustwave.

The attacker installed keylogging software on users' computers in 92 countries, recording their logins and user passwords as they were typed.

The companies themselves were not breached, but ADP, Facebook, LinkedIn, and Twitter have reset passwords and alerted compromised users, CNNMoney reports.

The keylogger tool was a version of the Pony botnet controller, a malicious piece of software that has been proliferating since its source code was published. The botnet controller is mainly being used to steal passwords, according to Trustwave researchers.

This time, whoever was behind the attack got around 1.5 million website login credentials, 320,000 email account credentials, 41,000 FTP credentials, 3,000 remote desktop credentials, and more.

A look at the passwords shows a keylogger may have been overkill, however. Trustwave reports that the most common passwords were "123456," "123456789," "1234," and "password."

Malware in Chrome and Firefox can access Google +, Twitter and Facebook accounts

Malware in Chrome and Firefox is presented as an extension of the browser and allows access to Google +, Twitter and Facebook accounts.

It has discovered a new malware in Chrome and Firefox that comes in the form of an update to an extension and that may allow access to Twitter, Facebook and Google + accounts. Users of these browsers and social networks are lured to downloading what they believe it is an update to the video player and, in fact, end up downloading this malware.

Malware in Chrome and Firefox was discovered by Trend Micro and can be identified as TROJ_FEBUSER.AA. The good news is that, although it can be installed as an extension for Chrome and Firefox, not it can be adapted for Safari, Internet Explorer, or Opera. And worst of all is that this threat includes a digital signature.

This malware tricks the user into believing that it is a package of services from the browser that you are using, even refers to the security of the company under the legend "F-secure". Malware in Chrome and Firefox, once installed in the browser, asks you to download a configuration file which includes details to access the social media of the user accounts and reach give Likes, share posts, join a group, invite friends to a group, chat with friends, comment on updates and make status updates without the authorization of the owner of the account. Though all this seems only Facebook, Trend Micro ensures that you affected also Google + and Twitter accounts.

The real problem, however, is not in the taking of identity; but that user accounts can be used to distribute any type of links that may have content that threatens the same user or to others. The fact that the malware in Chrome and Firefox contains a digital signature is not warranty that the software can come from a reliable source. Trend Micro says that this feature is only for developers to test that the file comes from them and that it has not been modified by someone else.

Malware writers lately prefer to use browsers to distribute such software since it can affect users regardless of the operating system that you are using. The recommendation in these cases is to update extensions from reliable sources such as the Chrome Web Store or add-ons for Firefox page to avoid problems.

Twitter app update with version 5.6 for iOS and Android brings new composer and more Notification settings

Twitter has released updates for its iOS and Android apps bringing new features and a minor redesign.
The update a brings new features including picture previews in the tweet composer and easy access to picture gallery in the composer. The change reduces the number of steps involved in selecting and uploading pictures via the apps, as the tweet composer displays the pictures within the app. The tweet composer now also includes the user's profile picture and account name which was previously missing. It's also easier to add or remove the location as it can be now done right from the tweet box.

Twitter has also made user interface design changes in timeline view offering wider and taller timelines in all parts of the app including profiles, search, and discover. Previously there was a white border visible throughout.

The above features have been pushed to both the iOS as well as the Android app.

The update also includes richer notifications for Android users. With the update, users will now see more details about their interactions on Twitter right in the notifications drawer. They'll be able to swipe the notification to expand and see more details in the drawer.

The apps will also notify the user when their friends join Twitter.

Twitter had previously updated its apps, earlier this month. The update brought trends from over 100 new locations. The updated iOS app also allowed users to invite friends to join Twitter from within the app. In addition to this, the Twitter iOS app version 5.6 also introduced improved playback of Vine videos along with some minor bug fixes.

Twitter had recently introduced two-factor authentication to beef up security following a spate of attacks on accounts of prominent media outlets including the Associated Press, the Financial Times and The Onion.

How to Get Twitter Followers with Vine – the 6 Second Video Wonder

We all know that Twitter was up to something when they grew silent for a few months. There was no news on any upgrades or acquisitions. In fact, it was Facebook that made the noise about privacy updates and other features they were cooking up to secure their business partners.

But suddenly Twitter took the stage introducing a revolutionary way of using video to capture audience interest. The Vine is a stand-alone video app that paves the way for new and exciting way to utilize video into showing people a 6-second snippet of somebody else’s life.

Do you know how else this video app can help the online community – especially the marketers? It gives them the advantage of branding that has a higher propensity to stick to the minds of viewers.
But the most beneficial gain that this Vine brings is its strong pull to the Twitter community, which translates to getting Twitter followers.

So how do you utilize Vine to get Twitter followers?

Product Demonstrations

Indeed, no one say that product demos should be a minute long or worse. Creating a 6-second video to demonstrate new features entices curiosity and wonder. It compels the viewer to check out the product or the particular feature showcased on the video. Won’t that be an awesome way to drive traffic to your website or video? Not to mention, you’ll get a lot of curious followers of followers following you. Whew! That’s a lot of follows.
The disadvantage, however, is on the likelihood that your product is so complicated a minute wouldn't be enough, how much more 6 seconds?

Event Teasers or Sneak Peek

Tweeting something like, “Watch out for the greatest fashion show on Earth!” doesn’t seem to cut it nowadays. People seem to have immunity against hyperbole and other superlatives to any event announcements. Why? It’s because everybody is doing it, even to the most useless and boring events.

With Twitter, you can never tell whether these organizations are telling the truth until you click on the link and arrive at an all white-splashed cyber wall of micro-texts and hideous photos. Vine can ease the burden from tweeters’ shoulders as well as provide your events the right kind of exposure they are due.

Contest and Promotions

Holding a contest is easy but getting people to join is not. You can barely nudge these tweeters to spare a few seconds of their time to sign up and do what you want them to do. But given the right tool, the fun and the incentives, who can resist right?

Using Vine for personal consumption is already fun, how much more when you get to win something out of doing the thing you love – Vineying (excuse me, if I call it that). Twitter users who learn of your contest, will not hesitate to follow you for a chance to join your contest. It would also fire up their creativity and would provide you a host of Vine videos for product promotions.

Vine is a smart acquisition of Twitter up to par with Facebook’s Instagram. It provides a unique way for companies to brand and other ingenious ways to pursue marketing and lead generation, which of course starts with getting Twitter followers.

Are you using Vine? If yes, for what purpose?

Feel free to drop a comment, if you can think of something to add in using Vine to get Twitter followers.
