Facebook is now valued at around $300 billion after it shattered its own records and now has more than 1.5 billion registered users. Now it has more than 1.5 billion registered users for the first time ever around half of the world's internet connected population.
"We had a good quarter and got a lot done," said founder Mark Zuckerberg, "we're focused on innovating and investing for the long term to serve our community and connect the entire world." The figures in its presentation were eye-watering - eight billion videos are viewed on the site each day, 900 million people use its WhatsApp service each month, while 45 million businesses use its Pages feature.
Most of Facebook's new users come from outside Europe and North America. Facebook said ads on mobile devices accounted for 78% of advertising revenue, up from 66% a year ago. Chief operating officer Sheryl Sandberg said: "We think we have the best mobile ad product in the market. We're able to target, we're able to measure. We have broad scale."
Nail arts in seconds.
Normally girls do like to paint their nails in different color. But nowadays they upgrade their self with doing nail art which is called menicure. Getting nail art painted on two hands usually takes anywhere from 20 minutes to an hour. That’s not bad, although it’s not exactly super-convenient either. Fingernails2Go is an upcoming kiosk that cuts down that application time to just a few minutes.
Made by Tensator Technology Center, the kiosk automatically paints any design of your choosing directly on your nails, removing the long minutes of sitting that getting nail art usually requires. It will bear the same quality as manually-applied nail art, too, so you’re not sacrificing any quality for the added convenience.
Fingernails2Go consists of an upright cabinet with an onboard display where you will choose the nail art image and a designated slot for inserting your hand. An integrated HP thermal inkjet printer does the work of applying the actual image using a specially-formulated ink that meets both FDA and EU health standards. The process isn’t entirely automated and unsupervised, though. Instead, the kiosk will always have an employee on hand, whose job is to prep and finish your nails. Before you actually get the nail art, the attendant will first give your fingernails a base coat and a primer to both protect the nails and ensure the image adheres properly. Only at that point do you actually use the machine.
