ome fa il gigante dei social media a decidere chi e cosa mettere nel tuo feed? Tom Weber conduce un esperimento di un mese per rompere l'algoritmo, scoprendo di Facebook i 10 più grandi segreti. Più digitale diventa la nostra vita quotidiana, più perplessi le domande sembrano.Intende la crescita dei social media distruggere le nostre nozioni di privacy? La democrazia è aiutato o danneggiato dalla cacophony of opinions online? And perhaps more confusing, because the guy I barely know the 10th grade to keep showing up in my feed Facebook? If you have ever heard time on Facebook, you've probably thought about it once. The social networking giant promises to keep us connected with our friends in exchange for pumping a steady diet of advertising with us, but the algorithms used to decide which of Facebook news to pass along may seem capricious or entirely impenetrabile.esperimento a month, in The Daily Beast's Facebook news feed produced the following findings: A prejudice against the newcomers
"newer" does not tell the whole story. "Stalking" your friends will not let you out.
Raise your visibility by getting people to leave comments.
It 'hard to get the attention of "young people".
Facebook, much like Google with its search algorithms, consistently refuses to go into detail on how the collection and content (except for some details on the engine watching this year's enigmatic that feeds it, EdgeRank). So with the mystery of that friend tenth of a degree in mind, The Daily Beast referred to crack the code of custom news feeds on Facebook. Why are some friends seem to appear constantly, while others are rarely seen? How
shots of other friends in the network affect what you're shown? The Facebook reward some activities with undue exposure? And you can "stalk" your way into a friend's news feed from their page obsessively and photos? To get answers, we devised an experiment to create our own test laboratory within the confines of virtual Facebook and monitoring of thousands of news-feed for a period of several weeks. The focus of our experiment: Filippo Simonetti, a newcomer 60-year-old Facebook, which has allowed us to dictate and control every mossa.Come half billion people before him, Simonetti joined Facebook and started typing in his status updates. But in this case, Simon's only friends were a handpicked roster of more than two dozen volunteers who have agreed to sift through their news feed for the duration of our experiment, dutifully record any sightings Phil.
3. I Velvet Rope: "Top News": The real fun started when the end we learned different subgroups of our force volunteer friend to interact with Phil so controllato.Improvvisamente, Phil began popping up on feed. But what? Current newsfeed system offers users two options: "Top News", a highly selective feed for updates friends, and "newer", a "fire tube" that shows the updates in chronological order inverso.Un cluster of interactions, however, still do not guarantee that you will get anyone Top News, which is like a vast majority of users Facebook to get their information. Some of our volunteers reported frequent sightings of updates to Phil in their Top News feeds, while others saw him rarely, and in some cases, mai. Top news vi mostrerà gli aggiornamenti vecchi di ore da alcuni amici, ignorando i più recenti dagli altri.Facebook ha un motivo per fare questo: se gli utenti ha visto tutti i posti per tutti i loro amici, potrebbero essere sopraffatto (o annoiato) e uscire, un disastro per Facebook, che ha bisogno di occhi per guadagnare. Ma così facendo, il sistema di classificazione di Facebook rende giudizi su elementi che ritiene tu possa essere interessato. Che ne è stato chiaro dopo due settimane è stata che non è la quantità di attività che hai, ma il tipo.
Even with test-subject Simonetti that published updates, links, photos and videos several times a day, some of our volunteers have found that the items do not appear in their most recent feed. (At least, not until we have taken further measures for the visibility of Phil.) If you have not tinkered with the "Edit Options" on the most recent feed, this emphasis should be checked. there is a little used setting the roof on the number of friends shown in the feed.
5. "Stalking" on your friends will not have news. Maybe you've put on it while poring over photos of an old flame or a friend on Facebook, or perhaps you have worked diligently to obtain the radar of someone clicking their whole page. Not Facebook algorithms mysterious factor of interest sneak into another person in a news feed that person? To find out, our test subject spent several days obsessively checking the posts and photos of some volunteers who had yet to spy on him in their feed. The result was clear: not stalking leads up to nothing.
6. Having friends that help you pursue your Popularity. Stalking the acts in the opposite direction, we could find. After spending days in vain for Phil to post updates, with most of our volunteers saw that no one of them, we commissioned a group of friends to start showing more interest in Phil. Even if you do not was showing in their feed, have tried several times to her Facebook page, clicking on the link he had posted his picture and display. This was the point where Phil finally began to break. It took a few days constant clicking, but not limited to friends who did the stalking began to see Phil in their Top News feeds. Even glialtri stalkers who were not even started to notice him. Si potrebbe pensare che hai condiviso quelle foto adorabili nuovo bambino o la notizia della tua promozione grande con tutti i tuoi amici. Ma non solo Facebook decidere chi sarà e non vedere le novità, mantiene anche i dettagli dei suoi interventi relativamente discreta.Per tutto il tempo, Facebook, come Google, continua a ridefinire "ciò che è importante per te" come "ciò che è importante per gli altri." In tale quadro, la serendipità appartiene a coloro che si collegano direttamente con i loro amici nel mondo reale, o almeno di prendere il tempo di saltare i loro feed di notizie e di andare a visitare pages of their friends' directly once every tanto.Thomas E.
