Summary | Facebook enabled event organizers to reach thousands of people. Because of these masses of invited people, accepting an invitation stopped being binding. Now the trend is towards smaller, more exclusive events for networking. Accepting an invitation to a smaller event is more binding and networking works better if the company is overviewable.

Summary | Researchers found out that people who cuss more are more likely to be honest. If they do not filter their language to please other people, they are less likely to filter the content too. The study analysed thousands of Facebook posts and found that Facebook users in the north east of the US are more prone to use expletives in their posts while users from the south use less swear words. Those who cussed on Facebook also used a lexicon indicating honesty (such words as "I" and "me").
