Tweet Compressor Pourquoi Facebook offre 3 milliards de dollars pour Snapchat Mark Zuckerberg serait-il paranoïaque, en privé comme dans son job de patron de Facebook ? En octobre, la presse californienne avait raconté comment le jeune milliardaire avait racheté trois villas contiguës à la sienne, à Palo Alto, histoire de ne pas être embêté par des voisins. Celui qui fait commerce de la vie privée des autres protège donc la sienne. On peut se demander si la tentative de rachat de Snapchat par Facebook ne relève pas du même réflexe. Le réseau social aurait proposé 3 milliards de dollars cash (2,2 milliards d’euros) pour racheter cette start-up de cinquante-sept salariés, créée il y a deux ans. Révélée mercredi 13 novembre par le Wall Street Journal, cette offre hallucinante a néanmoins été déclinée par les deux fondateurs de Snapchat. Snapchat est une application qui permet d’envoyer des messages, photos et vidéos qui s’effacent quelques secondes après que leur destinataire les a découverts.

Facebook launches On February 4, 2004, a Harvard sophomore named Mark Zuckerberg launches The Facebook, a social media website he had built in order to connect Harvard students with one another. By the next day, over a thousand people had registered, and that was only the beginning. Now known simply as Facebook, the site quickly ballooned into one of the most significant social media companies in history. Today, Facebook is one of the most valuable companies in the world, with over 2 billion monthly active users. The origins of Facebook have been highly scrutinized (including in the critically acclaimed 2010 film The Social Network), but the exact source of the idea remains unclear. Over the course of his sophomore year, Zuckerberg built what would become Facebook. From there, Facebook spread across the world, becoming not only an incredibly valuable company but also one of the most important institutions of the early 21st Century.
How Twitter and Crowdsourcing Are Reshaping Recruiting - The Con by Jeanne C Meister and Karie Willyerd | 1:12 PM September 25, 2009 Why don’t more companies use Twitter to hire the right job candidates? We also know that there can be an opportunity cost in not tweeting: last month, Jeanne was at the Legg Mason tennis finals watching Andy Roddick lose in 122-degree heat. After the four-hour match, she wrote a tweet about it — and before she’d even left the stadium, several followers sent replies asking why she hadn’t met up with them to watch the match together. So think of the untapped potential opportunities for companies looking to source and attract talent. What happened next is an indication of the future direction of recruiting: in listening to these conversations, Best Buy decided that the community had other ideas — and good ones — for how this job description should look, and what the qualifications should be. Has your company used Twitter to find talent or crowdsource job descriptions?
