When We Trended on Twitter By Spending Rs. 200!

I suffer from all sorts of mania — often conflicting, always annoying for others: Chai-o-mania: drinking chai to the point that my stomach cries of acidity. Fitbit-o-mania: completing my daily 8k steps even if that means that I have to run clumsily at 11:45 pm on my arguably fragile terrace. Passion-o-mania: keep talking about that one idea so passionately that everyone around me starts believing in it. List-o-mania: writing everything in the form of lists. And the list goes on! Some maniacs are short-lived, some last for a few months and some have been there since forever. One such mania is my obsession with lists and striking off an item from the list is my equivalent to the big O. So, it is only right if I say that the bucket list of our one-year-...

Twitter to keep 140-character limit, CEO Jack Dorsey says

Twitter Inc's 140-character tweets are here to stay, Chief Executive Jack Dorsey said on Friday, ending speculation that the microblogging site might abandon one of its trademark features for a 10,000-character limit. "It's staying. It's a good constraint for us and it allows for of-the-moment brevity," Dorsey said on NBC's Today Show. A Twitter spokesman declined to elaborate. In January, technology news website Re/code reported that Twitter was building a new feature that would allow tweets as long as 10,000 characters. Twitter has declined to comment on the feature directly. But Dorsey tweeted the day of the report that the company had seen more screenshots of text posted as a way to get around the 140-character limit.

German Court Fined Facebook 100,000 Euros

A German court has fined a social networking giant Facebook for refusing to follow an order of adequately informing users about how it was using their intellectual property. The court fined Facebook 100,000 euros (USD109,000). A spokesperson for Facebook, however, said that the problem was with the timing rather than the message. "We complied with the order to clarify a single provision in our terms concerning an IP license a while ago. The court felt we did not update our terms quickly enough and has issued a fine, which we will pay," a Facebook spokesperson said. The Berlin regional court ruled that Facebook had not adequately changed the wording of a clause on intellectual property in its terms and conditions after a complaint was filed by the Federation of German Consumer O...

Here’s What LinkedIn CEO Jeff Weiner’s Said After Stock Loses 40% of Its Value

In case you haven’t been paying attention, many tech stocks are under serious pressure. LinkedIn, where I have been an executive for nearly six years, is one of those companies, having lost more than 40% of our value after announcing our 2015 earnings and guidance for 2016 last Thursday. As you can imagine, this has the potential to cause angst and churn, both internally and externally, and over the last week, I’ve been fascinated by the varied reactions of people, both inside and outside the company, with whom I’ve interacted: indignant, perplexed, resilient, full of pity, inspired and shell-shocked. When something like this happens at a company, you can witness very extreme, and often negative, reactions from people like the CEO and CFO, who can get into a blame game and create a c...
