What Facebook is missing?

I am not a Facebook(er); being computer geek, blogger and academic writer i hardly got time to spend to much time on Facebook, and when I look back to My Facebook, it means either I am bored or i am searching some jokes to laugh and relax.
Other times i come to Facebook is when i found something interesting, i do like the same on FB as follow up. There are many who update there blogs and websites regularly, my Favorite on FB is Leo, he is an authority in computers and programming and sometimes i get very good post from Leo. So my FB profile is alive mainly because of Leo, hope Mark Zuckerberg will read this post he will buy a Latte to Leo :D

As my FB like are growing, certainly in four fields, academics, programming, blogging, and tech tips, another is news. At this point I strongly wish FB should have added another custom UI along side like button, so i may have liked it below a certain category. This may have made reading easy. Also there needed customized wall post interface so post of similar category should display under one hood. For now all posts from your likes appear in just one single page on your wall and this makes reading difficult.

As i always browse news from our Fire Fox or Chrome, so off course when i log in to FB most of the time it does not make much sense to see the same news post again. However, it comes handy, the day when i check FB first. If there was a facility to like news feed under a given category, i would not require giving attention to already read news pieces. But it is that way so it is that way. However, personally i feel, if facebook will add a customization to like under which category, certainly it improve user experience.

Another small issue i came across is facebook search; as soon when i put Indian in FB search box, it suggested Indian ***********, some mature content; however, i was intended to search Indian Statistical Institute, New Delhi. I am not a kid, i don't know if someone below 18/13 get same suggestions of FB search box, but whether one is teen or above teen, such suggestions distract one from actual task. In this area i feel facebook needs improvements.

Personally, i have nothing against facebook or any mature page, book or anything, the way i use facebook and the experience i get sharing here through this post for my readers. I feel FB need some re innovations, seriously in terms of programming and designing. What you feel?

Why to hire human copywriter when AI can do the job

Good question, that many many many zombies throw at me when I discuss Copywriting. Of course Copywriting is not for zombies. If you are a person or company who has hired a Copywriter to make money then do not hire. Your goal is survival and not zoom or use change as an opportunity. Your question is pretty similar: why drink water when I have sweetlime tree in the backyard and a juicer in the kitchen. However, if you are a professional, business person, company or someone looking to make a change then a Copywriter is worth hiring. Why? If you are a beginner and truly stuck between thoughts of hiring a writer or going with AI, my suggestion is Go with both. Chose a human to use tools, chose a Copywriter to write and encourage him to use AI in creating copy. AI connects you with libraries worldwide and presents data in certain formats. It cannot add human touch. AI can not differentiate between good and bad, AI does not know who is your audience. A Copywriter can seek help from AI to fetc...

Hack Gaps

 Just I was writing an email to my collogue and the term Hack Gaps suddenly I keyed. So let's Hack Gaps to build that unique brand. My terms are stolen more often so I thought to key down it here to flaunt and say see I am the creator of Hack Gaps. I don't know if anyone before today has said or written or thought that term before I wrote that email.  Whether someone before has thought or not, not my business. But my business is to make optimal use of the term I said, and thought it's nascent for me. However, you have to wait for sometime or may be days before I come up with something may be like how to use hack gaps to build your brand.

How to get quality traffic on a single page website that converts

Single page website? Not a bad idea. May be you want to sell your products online. You can not write too much as you are too busy in creating and modifying your product. And you need to travel a lot for promotions. Outsourcing could be one of the answer but if your budget is tight then hiring a freelancer may drain your money. And writing regular blog post would be tough. In such a situation one page website can serve the purpose. It will be easy to update especially if its cms based may be like wordpress for example. Its one page website with simple product picture, detailed description, ways to order and customer review. You are not tech savvy and don't want to invest too much on website's geeky things. One page is enough for you. Its doable, but without traffic how will you generate online sales. That is the question right? I said quality traffic that converts and make your bank account numbers increase. After all you mean sales. Its a good idea that you want to focus on you...
