I (1) didn't know that Facebook had a dating service (although it is not yet widely available), (2) am reminded of @OliviaCrowley96 's post about the Betches dating app "Ship" and (3) am pretty sure I would look to any platform other than Facebook for dating help. #IS6621

[KateU19 @KateU_19]

@licarima Legit just opened @facebook to check this out- it reminds me so much of @instagram , especially since their most recent update. It might honestly make me use Facebook less #IS6621

[KateU19 @KateU_19]

Love this! @mindykaling is producing a new show with @Netflix, and used social media to get audition tapes from South Asian actress, and got an incredible response. An awesome example of social media being sued for good! #IS6621

[KateU19 @KateU_19]

@matturally @OliviaCrowley96 Exactly! You get a notification that someone has a “crush” on you, but you don’t find out who unless you have a “crush” on them too. #IS6621

Facebook just announced a new feature called Secret Crush that will allow Facebook Dating users to select up to 9 friends to express interest in. It's similar to matching on Tinder or Bumble, except you get to pick specific friends you want to date https://t.co/VwNMzHpbQv

Check out my final blog post for #IS6621, in which I make it clear that I’ve mastered embedding gifs, if nothing else! https://t.co/4TMOWFJCTv

@taylorfq6 @WSJ Good news, we've got Michael Scott for a little while longer: https://t.co/DMhvpjEt5Y #IS6621

[Netflix @netflix]

Hello it's me with your regularly scheduled reminder that The Office will be on Netflix until 2021 — at least!

Really interesting article from @Wired that reinforces what we keep talking about in class - social media is not an accurate representation of what the majority of people think/believe/feel. Hopefully we will see the media embracing this realization soon #IS6621 #C

Pew Research has found that in general, Twitter users are younger, wealthier, and better educated than the rest of the country. They're also more likely to lean left. https://t.co/UcBNKxDXbo

@emmasandersisys This is actually a feature that’s been around for years, and one that I love! You can also pay $9/month for Kindle Unlinited, which lets you take out up to 10 books at a time, and is a great way to discover new authors! #IS6621

[KateU19 @KateU_19]

@kgcorrigan I totally agree with everyone on this - this could be a serious game changer. Like @LuizaSAraujo1 , I wonder what this would mean for influencers, and if Instagram would continue using likes in determine where a post appears in your feed/the explore page #IS6621

It’s awesome to see my alma mater @colgateuniv succeeding on an initiative put in place when I was an undergrad, and to see the ways that technological advances allowed them to achieve carbon neutrality #IS6621

[Colgate University @colgateuniv]

Colgate has achieved carbon neutrality and this is just the beginning. #EarthDay

@thekidbeats1 @Massport @MassGovernor @MBTA Uber has joined this fight too- I got an email yesterday asking me to sign a petition against this move #IS6621

[KateU19 @KateU_19]

@matturally Yup! I actually got really confused at first, and thought the NYT had changed their app.

[KateU19 @KateU_19]

A few weeks ago we talked about Apple News+ & it’s potential issues. Take a look at the photos below- one is the last 24ish hours of NYTimes updates from Apple News, the other is updates from the NYTimes app. Notice any differences?? #IS6621

[New York Islanders @NYIslanders]

YES☝️ YES☝️ YES☝️

#Isles WIN in overtime!!!

@Huang91J I had always used Uber, but switched to Lyft after the scandals. Now that I’m in Boston (and a full time student), I’ll use whichever costs less, although getting Delta miles for Lyft rides is huge incentive for me. It will be really interesting to compare their IPOs #IS6621

[KateU19 @KateU_19]

@JesseRosenber14 @Forbes Awesome article, especially in light of my blog post this week! I'm excited to see what All Raise does going forward! #IS6621

[KateU19 @KateU_19]

I just clicked on a WSJ article about Uber's IPO, and received the message in this picture. Interesting move on their part - sine the WSJ will be joining Apple News+, I wonder if this is a move to incentivize readers to subscribe through their channels? #IS6621

[KateU19 @KateU_19]

Really interesting timing on Facebook’s part, especially having just read the article that @miriampbourke retweeted earlier! #IS6621 #C

[WIRED @WIRED]

Facebook is taking another stab at stopping fake news. The platform announced a slew of changes today, including the introduction of a new metric that will make it harder to go viral on its News Feed if you are not also viral on the rest of the internet https://t.co/fvTlxguEaa

This is so cool & a great application of technology! Maybe it will be good to have robot overlords! But really, it's awesome to see conservation utilize tech in this way, & gives me hope that we can apply it to hopefully mitigate some of the effects of climate change #IS6621
