Love my kids and seeing pics of my grandson, but who has time?

---

Same here. I’m 64 and have never, ever carried a picture of a loved on in my wallet. Their image is in my brain. It’s all I need.

Logical result of routinely banning a sizable minority of members AND their most interesting ones.
Why bother signing up for Tweets when it is a repeat of liberal mantras you get through every other medium?

Q !CbboFOtcZs ID: 3a6d31 No.2310166 📁 Jul 27 2018 10:20:30 (EST) Twitter near 20% slide? FB near 20% slide? All because of missed earnings? What does the Street know? Insiders dumping? [DC moves slow] @Jack MZ Your hands are dirty. Q

[dfwgator]

Yep, I want to know who is dumping the stock.

[Red Badger]

I hope it’s institutional investors...................

The twitter one was hard for me to understand.

Users only hit 334 million vs a 335 million goal? Seriously?

(Those figures may be one point off or so, but I believe it was still a one point spread)

When the selfie craze dies out, I wonder what will happen to Instagram.

---

It already has. Rule #1 of Instagram is don’t post too many selfies.

You think your president has a weak mind?

I receive Donald J. Trump’s tweets, but today I am getting the same tweets that I have “liked” multiple times, something like 4 or 5 times. I wonder what’s up with that.

[KittyKares]

I’m wondering if Twitter is doing this so that people get tired of getting the same tweets over and over and stop following him.

Their stock fell because their growth has stalled...........

..... and their growth stalled because their advertisers began to realize that they weren't getting all of the eyeballs they were paying for ....

..... same with facebook ....

[Red Badger]

If I was CEO of either company, I’d have my programmers create a sign-in / sign-up process that would eliminate ‘bots’.

It’s not difficult.....................

Twitter and Facebook are committing stock fraud and charging for ads to “people” that do not exist. The numbers they claim are way to high. They expect you to believe that more then a third of the worlds population has A) a computer B) signed up for Facebook and Twitter and C) are active accounts and not “bots” that the companies are using to commit fraud.
Google and others regularly commit ad fraud and have been caught. They then give back some (not all) of the stolen money.

Google search results: As of the second quarter of 2018, Facebook had 2.23 billion monthly active users.
335 million for Twitter.
