Twitter Adds A New Product – A Notification System. Now More Spams From Twitter

0

Twitter that does not need an introduction, yesterday, introduced an email notification system. In an official tweet, Twitter stated thus:

 

Starting today, we’re rolling out an email notification that lets you know if someone you follow retweets or favorites one of your Tweets.

 

This is in addition to the present trend where they notify you when someone follows you.

 

Tekedia thinks this is a very poor product. Twitter should make it optional. For some very influential Twitter users, they would be sure to be deleting emails hourly. It does not add much value. They already have a way of letting users see what is happening on their tweets from Twitter console.

 

We are going to see more email spams and Twitter will end up encouraging many people to cancel. Think of users like Lady Gaga,; does it mean she has to worry about 10,000 emails if few thousands of her users decide to re-tweet her tweet. We understand that email notification is sent when a new user followers, but that one is once and for all. This new feature can be difficult for some very huge users.

FUTO Has a New Vice Chancellor – Professor C. C. Asiabaka

11
FUTO is a top technical university in Nigeria

Champion reports that Federal University of Technology Owerri (FUTO) has announced the appointment of Professor Chigozie Cyril Asiabaka as the new Vice Chancellor (VC). He takes over from Professor Celestine Onwuliri whose tenure will expire in June.

A statement from the university signed by the Registrar Mr. C.O. Omeire said Professor Asiabaka was appointed the 6th substantive Vice-Chancellor of FUTO by Engineer Vita Abbe-led Governing Council at the council’s 133 meeting held on Thursday 19th May 2011.

According to the statement, the council in accordance with the powers conferred on it by the provisions of the University (Miscellaneous Provision) Amendment Act 2003 considered the three candidates recommended to it by the selection board and appointed Professor Asiabaka.

“By this appointment, Professor Asiabaka, the current Dean of the School of Agriculture and Agricultural Technology will assume office as Vice-Chancellor when the tenure of the current Vice-Chancellor, Professor C.O.Onwuliri, expires on June 18, 2011”, the statement said.

Asiabaka has held several administrative positions in the University including Chairman Committee of Deans, member 8th Governing Council of FUTO, Director Center for Continuing Education and Head Department of Agricultural Extension before occupying his current position as Dean of School of Agriculture and Agricultural Technology. He is international consultant on Agricultural Extension and has over 133 scholarly publications.

As expected, his appointment as substantive Vice-Chancellor of the institution has sparked off jubilation in FUTO community as well as his home town Ideato which also produced the incoming governor of the state Chief Rochas Okorocha.

  1. What you must know: Your Church!

If you had never, then you are lucky this offer is coming to you!

 

Technology has revolutionized the way churches connect with the community.  In fact, people often wonder how many men of GOD run a church without using the Internet.  Many Evangelists had begun their e-ministries when the Internet was in its infancy, and no one knew exactly where it would lead.  Today, congregations use church websites, email, blogs, social networking sites and many other forms of communication to plan, manage, disseminate GOD’s word and run churches.  While these are all great communication tools, rarely do we stop to think about the cost of achieving the aim – this is where Fasmicro (Nig.) Ltd comes into play.
