Money quote: "Note that this 'clumsy' move also applies to their Instagram colony, with (at least) millions of accounts affected. And, in this day and age, such behaviour should be processed with a criminal complaint. It won't happen, of course, but it should.

Nuove tendenze nella moda underground: lo strano caso delle contraffazioni all about Peppa Pig
Money quote: "How did a British cartoon character for little kids become so incredibly popular with fashionable adults in China — and how popular is it? Insanely. A WeChat video “What’s Peppa Pig,” an ad for a movie produced by Alibaba Entertainment opening Feb. 5 in China, debuted earlier this month and garnered 835 million views in its first week on the social media site."

Money quote: "In the last few years exceptionally tall yellow meranti trees (Shorea faguetiana) have been discovered growing in Sabah, a Malaysian state on the island of Borneo, again and again. The record height of an individual jumped from 288 feet (88 meters) to 308.7 feet (94.1 meters) in 2016, when an entire grove of 90-meter (295-feet) plus yellow meranti were found. That record has been further eclipsed this week as a team led by the Universities of Nottingham and Oxford, working with the South East Asia Rainforest Research Partnership, announced the discovery of a 330.7-foot (100.8-meter) giant growing in Sabah’s forests (the scientific study on the find is being published in bioRxiv this week, and is in review in a scientific journal)."

Premessa, secondo me stiamo tornando a velocità medio-alta verso un’epoca di pagine personali, fuori dai social. Detto questo, ci sono lezioni che si possono prendere dal settore che ha continuato a favorire questo tipo di comunicazione, ovvero quello commerciale. E il concetto che vale la pena di rivisitare è quello di “landing page”. Andiamo a dare un’occhiata?

La macchina, ma sarebbe meglio dire l’animale sociale funziona così: c’è un problema o comunque una linea netta, e pian piano, come formichine, ci sono quelli che provano a vedere se si riesce a trovare una strada alternativa, diagonale, ortogonale, tangente, distante. Un esempio? Da un lato, il segno rosso fuoco della crisi di immagine di Facebook. Dall’altra, c’è chi ci prova a scrivere articoli su “Come fare a fare affari senza essere legati a Facebook”. E poi vediamo come va, se cresce oppure no.
Ps: ma voi siete Facebook-free? A me rimane Instagram (perché mi piace) e WhatsApp (per colpa degli altri, io l’avrei già segato da tempo).
Money quote: “Being a Facebook-Free Business means your customers can trust that you aren’t collaborators with the Facebook machine. That when you spend your money with a Facebook-Free Business, none of that money will find its way back to Facebook’s coffers.
The rules are pretty simple. Being Facebook Free means:
- We do not buy advertisement on Facebook, Messenger, Instagram, or WhatsApp.
- We do not use Facebook, Messenger, Instagram, or WhatsApp to promote or represent our business or to communicate with our customers.
- We do not assist Facebook in its data collection regime through use of Facebook social Like buttons or by offering Facebook logins.
In short, that the business does not use Facebook or its subsidiaries in any way shape or form to operate, further, or conduct itself.”

A dragon boat race set included a sticky-rice dumpling, a popular festival snack. The high-quality kits are pricey, costing up to 700 yuan ($100) apiece."
