<p>It took two days longer than expected, but <strong>Justin Bieber</strong> succeeded Tuesday in overtaking fellow pop idol <strong>Lady Gaga</strong> as the most followed person on Twitter.</p>
<p>&#8220;After putting up a great fight (which took longer than we expected), <strong>Justin Bieber</strong> took <strong>Lady Gaga&#8217;s</strong> crown this early morning,&#8221; Twitter Counter, which tracks and monitors Twitter usage, reported on its blog.</p>
<p>By mid-day, the Biebs had <strong>33,342,299</strong> followers, against <strong>33,333,682</strong> for the Mother Monster, followed by Katy Perry, Rihanna and, a day after his public second-term inauguration, President Barack Obama with <strong>26,183,711</strong> followers.</p>
<p>Last week Twitter Counter had forecasted that, according to its algorithms, <strong>Bieber</strong> would clinch first place last Sunday.</p>
<p><strong>Bieber</strong> and <strong>Lady Gaga</strong> &#8212; who had led the Twitter pack since 2010 when she outpaced <strong>Britney Spears</strong> for the top spot &#8212; are currently on tour in the United States.</p>
<p>&#8220;So proud of <strong>@justinbieber</strong> and all the <strong>Beliebers!</strong>&#8221;  <strong>Lady Gaga</strong> graciously tweeted her Canadian-born rival last week. &#8220;I&#8217;m only happy to see your fans growing in size, you all deserve it! Monsters support you!&#8221;</p>

				<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p><a href="http://www.pakmediablog.com/wp-content/uploads/2012/10/apple-inc.jpg"><img src="http://www.pakmediablog.com/wp-content/uploads/2012/10/apple-inc.jpg" alt="" title="apple-inc" width="300" height="333" class="aligncenter size-full wp-image-861" /></a></p>
<p>Apple opened its biggest Asian store yet in Beijing Today, with hordes of shoppers descending on the three-floor complex that highlights the growing importance of China to the US tech giant.</p>
<p>The shop, on the major shopping street of Wangfujing in the heart of the capital, covers an area of 2,300 square metres (24,750 square feet), according to Chinese media reports.</p>
<p>China is now the second-biggest market for Apple after the United States but the company has also faced frequent criticism for the conditions in which its products are produced in China.</p>
<p>The enthusiasm for the company&#8217;s gadgets among the country&#8217;s fast-growing consumer class was clear Saturday as shoppers quickly packed out the new shop shortly after it opened at 9:00 am (0100 GMT).</p>
<p>Around 100 people also waited outside to enter the store, Apple&#8217;s sixth official outlet in mainland China . Many other shops in China are also licensed to sell Apple products.</p>
<p>The popularity of Apple in China is such that the launch of new iPhone models has in recent years led to huge crowds jostling to get their hands on the smartphones and spawned a black market in the gadgets.</p>
<p>The latest criticism to hit a company linked to Apple came earlier this week when Taiwan&#8217;s Foxconn, which makes products for the US tech giant, admitted employing children as young as 14 on assembly lines at a plant in China.</p>
<p>It was the latest in a string of problems to beset Foxconn, which has frequently been targeted for its labour practices following a spate of suicides in 2010 that activists blamed on tough working conditions.</p>
<p>Apple has seen its sales soar in China.</p>
<p>The company took in $12.4 billion in China in the first half of the current fiscal year to March, putting the company easily on course to eclipse the $13.3 billion in Chinese sales in the prior 12-month period.</p>

<p>Pop diva Lady Gaga has set a social media record by becoming the first person with more than 30 million followers on Twitter.</p>
<p>As of Thursday afternoon, she had 30,030,949 followers on the micro-blogging website, and is adding them at the rate of 30,000 a day, according to the Starcount.com website that monitors celebrity use of social media.</p>
<p>The 26-year-old &#8212; real name Stefani Joanne Angelina Germanotta &#8212; also passed the four million mark on Google+ earlier this week, and is in second place to only Britney Spears on the search giant&#8217;s social media platform.</p>
<p>&#8220;Paving the way for other stars on social media, Lady Gaga often interacts with her fans and has even set up her own social network for the Little Monsters with thousands of regular users,&#8221; commented Starcount.com.</p>
<p>&#8220;But it is Twitter that has given her the incredible social popularity that she currently has,&#8221; it added in a blog, noting that her Twitter takeover started two years ago when she passed Ashton Kutcher, Barack Obama and Spears.</p>
<p>&#8220;Since then, her domination on the network has gone unmatched &#8212; she was the first person to reach 10 million and 20 million followers and is keeping up the trend now with 30 million.&#8221;</p>

<p>SEOUL: South Korea&#8217;s Samsung Electronics said it was considering adding Apple&#8217;s new iPhone 5 to a patent infringement case as part of a long-running global legal battle between the rival smartphone giants.</p>
<p>Samsung officials said the company would look into amending its side of an ongoing patent lawsuit in a US court to include the latest Apple gadget, which went on sale across Asia Friday and is due to hit US stores later in the day.</p>
<p>&#8220;Our company considers adding Apple&#8217;s iPhone 5 to the (patent infringement) case but we cannot say when,&#8221; a Samsung spokesman told.</p>
<p>&#8220;Our decision will be made after our company has analysed the iPhone 5 to see what aspects of its device constitutes patent infringement.&#8221;</p>
<p>South Korea&#8217;s Yonhap news agency quoted market watchers as saying Samsung may use its long-term evolution (LTE) patent portfolio to attack the iPhone 5 &#8212; the first Apple phone to use the fourth-generation telecom network.</p>
<p>Samsung and Apple &#8212; respectively the world&#8217;s number one and two smartphone makers &#8212; have been at loggerheads over dozens of patent lawsuits in 10 nations, accusing each other of copying technologies and designs.</p>
<p>Last month, a California court ordered Samsung to pay $1.05 billion for patent infringement. The South Korean firm has appealed the decision.</p>
<p>Samsung, in a statement late Thursday, accused Apple of continuing to take &#8220;aggressive legal measures that will limit market competition&#8221;.</p>
<p>It added: &#8220;Under these circumstances, we have little choice but to take the steps necessary to protect our innovations and intellectual property rights.&#8221;</p>

				<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p><a href="http://www.pakmediablog.com/wp-content/uploads/2012/09/Apple-iphone5-launch-date.jpg"><img src="http://www.pakmediablog.com/wp-content/uploads/2012/09/Apple-iphone5-launch-date-300x267.jpg" alt="" title="Apple-iphone5-launch-date" width="300" height="267" class="aligncenter size-medium wp-image-750" /></a></p>
<p>Apple becomes the focus of the technology universe Wednesday as the world awaits a new iPhone with a big, beautiful touchscreen and connectivity to blazingly fast telecom networks.</p>
<p>Apple has been tight-lipped about what is in store at its media event in San Francisco, but hinted at a keenly anticipated &#8220;iPhone 5&#8243; in invitations that bore the cryptic message &#8220;It&#8217;s almost here.&#8221;</p>
<p>Leaks and rumors portray the new iPhone as having a larger touchscreen than its predecessor and say that it will be available by the end of the month.</p>
<p>&#8220;They need to come out with a bigger screen since the market is clearly moving in that direction and they need to give the iPhone LTE 4G connectivity,&#8221; said NPD Group analyst Stephen Baker.</p>
<p>&#8220;Both of those are features people want and Apple is clearly ready to make them part of the iPhone.&#8221;</p>
<p>Telecom providers have been rolling out fourth-generation, or 4G, networks boasting top speeds for Internet-linked wireless devices.</p>
<p>Demand for what is being referred to as &#8220;iPhone 5&#8243; is likely to be hot, with analysts convinced many people have put off purchases to wait for Apple&#8217;s latest.</p>
<p>Canaccord Genuity brokerage told investors to expect record iPhone sales after a new model launches, and Piper Jaffray predicted that as many as 10 million could be bought during the week after launch.</p>
<p>&#8220;Pent-up demand for the iPhone 5 is such that Apple will sell every one they can make&#8221; in the coming weeks, said analyst Rob Enderle of Enderle Group.</p>
<p>Enderle said he expected the iPhone 5 to dominate until next year, when &#8220;fan demand&#8221; could give way to device-neutral shoppers saving money by opting for Android-powered rivals from firms like Samsung.</p>
<p>&#8220;Samsung has gone beyond copying iPhone to improving on it,&#8221; Enderle said.</p>
<p>Smartphones powered by Google&#8217;s Android software continued to dominate with 52.2 percent of the US market, but Apple&#8217;s iOS was the second most popular smartphone platform with 33.4 percent, comScore reported.</p>
<p>Samsung mobile phones remained the most popular in the United States with 25.6 percent of the market, but third-place Apple gained ground to claim 16.3 percent as of the end of July, according to comScore.</p>
<p>Google and Microsoft introduced new champions in the fiercely competitive smartphone arena a week ahead of the Apple event.</p>
<p>Microsoft and Nokia boosted their smartphone arsenal with two new Lumia handsets powered by Windows 8 software.</p>
<p>Motorola Mobility added three powerful Android smartphones to its Droid family, the first major product news from the company since it was bought by Internet giant Google a year ago in a $12.5 billion deal.</p>
<p>While unlikely to dull iPhone 5 frenzy, challengers &#8220;set bars&#8221; for smartphone battery life, screen quality, and wireless recharging, according to analysts.</p>
<p>&#8220;(Microsoft and Google) platforms are really out-innovating Apple but that might not matter to consumers,&#8221; said Gartner Research vice president of mobile computing Ken Delaney.</p>
<p>&#8220;The consumer goes into a store with a heavy bias to buy an Apple product and you have to do a lot to unseat them from that love affair.&#8221;</p>
<p>Apple usually uses its September media events to show off improvements to its iPod line, the stars of which are &#8220;Touch&#8221; models that are essentially iPhones without mobile phone features.</p>
<p>A separate media event is expected in October to unveil a new, smaller version of its wildly popular iPad tablet.</p>
<p>It remained a mystery whether the Cupertino, California-based company would confirm reports that it is in talks to license music for an online radio service.</p>
<p>Some analysts thought Apple might bring in a celebrity to infuse the Wednesday media event with magical energy that has been missing in the absence of company co-founder Steve Jobs, who died last year.</p>
<p>&#8220;You might have a celebrity on stage to re-create that old Steve Jobs excitement,&#8221; Enderle said. &#8220;Hopefully, it won&#8217;t be Clint Eastwood talking to a chair where Steve used to sit.&#8221;</p>
<p>Apple shares climbed to a new high on Friday, eclipsing $680 for the first time and giving it a market value of $637.5 billion, extending its lead as the world&#8217;s most valuable company.</p>

				<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p><a href="http://www.pakmediablog.com/wp-content/uploads/2012/09/facebook-like.jpeg"><img src="http://www.pakmediablog.com/wp-content/uploads/2012/09/facebook-like-300x111.jpeg" alt="" title="facebook-like" width="300" height="111" class="aligncenter size-medium wp-image-726" /></a></p>
<p>Facebook Inc is weeding out fake &#8220;Likes&#8221; on its social network that are being caused by spammers, malware and black marketeers as it strives to maintain credibility as an advertising platform.</p>
<p>Facebook said the number of Likes, or endorsements by users, on corporate pages is likely to drop by less than 1 percent, on average, after the crackdown.</p>
<p>&#8220;Newly improved automated efforts will remove those Likes gained by malware, compromised accounts, deceived users, or purchased bulk Likes,&#8221; Facebook said in a post on its official blog on Friday.</p>
<p>&#8220;While we have always had dedicated protections against each of these threats on Facebook, these improved systems have been specifically configured to identify and take action against suspicious Likes,&#8221; the post continued.</p>
<p>Thanks to a growing black market, companies can instantly raise their profile on Facebook by purchasing thousands of Likes at a time &#8211; a practice that is forbidden by the No. 1 social network, which has 955 million users.</p>
<p>Many of these Likes come from bogus Facebook user accounts rather than genuine users of the social network.</p>
<p>Meanwhile, various spam-like programs on Facebook deceive users into unwittingly liking something when they perform another action, such as clicking to watch a video.</p>
<p>Facebook said the cleanup will benefit both users and companies that maintain pages on the network, by giving a more accurate measurement of fan count and demographics.</p>
<p>Ensuring the integrity of Likes is serious business for Facebook, which depends on advertising revenue from large brands and other businesses. Many of the ad campaigns that companies conduct on Facebook are designed to garner Likes &#8211; a sign that their marketing message has resonated with consumers.</p>
<p>&#8220;It&#8217;s their currency,&#8221; said Jeremiah Owyang, a partner at research firm Altimeter Group. &#8220;Facebook is playing the Federal Reserve, to take the counterfeit currency off the market to ensure that there&#8217;s quality in the marketplace.&#8221;</p>
<p>The problem is not unique to Facebook, say analysts, who note that Twitter and Google Inc also grapple with fake accounts, spam and other techniques to game the service.</p>
<p>But for Facebook, the pressure to show that activity on its social network is genuine has grown as concerns have mounted on Wall Street about the company&#8217;s long-term profit potential.</p>
<p>Shares of Facebook set a new low on Friday, falling as much as 5.3 percent to $18.08, after brokerages cut their price targets on the stock. Facebook has lost more than 50 percent of its market value since its initial public offering in May.</p>
<p>Facebook estimates that 1.5 percent of its users are &#8220;undesirable&#8221; accounts set up for purposes that violate its terms of service, according to its most recent 10-Q regulatory filing.</p>
<p>&#8220;I think what they&#8217;re intending to do is get a handle on it before it gets really out of control,&#8221; Brian Blau, an analyst with research firm Gartner, said.</p>
<p>&#8220;You can imagine no business wants to pay for advertising to fake accounts.&#8221;</p>

				<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p style="text-align: left;">With all the news that Facebook had been taking up this entire week, no one even imagined that on the heels of the second largest IPO in history, the CEO would get married… Following his company’s $104 bn IPO on Nasdaq stock exchange on Friday, Facebook co-founder and CEO Mark Zuckerberg tied a knot with his long time girl friend Priscilla Chan on Saturday. Zuckerberg and Chan met at Harvard and had dated for nine years before tying the knot. The pair met at a party put on by Zuckerberg’s fraternity in 2003. The 28-year-old billionaires wedding took place in a private ceremony in the backyard of the couple&#8217;s home in Palo Alto, Calif. A little less than 100 people attended the wedding. The wedding came as a big surprise to the guests, as they all thought that they were there to celebrate Priscilla Chan’s graduation from medical school
<a href='http://www.pakmediablog.com/mr-and-mrs-facebook.html/attachment/01' title='01'><img width="150" height="150" src="http://www.pakmediablog.com/wp-content/uploads/2012/05/01-150x150.jpg" class="attachment-thumbnail" alt="01" /></a>
<a href='http://www.pakmediablog.com/mr-and-mrs-facebook.html/attachment/02' title='02'><img width="150" height="150" src="http://www.pakmediablog.com/wp-content/uploads/2012/05/02-150x150.jpg" class="attachment-thumbnail" alt="02" /></a>

</p>
<p>As per reports, Zuckerberg himself designed a graceful simple ruby wedding ring and made sure his life’s love Pricilla Chan had not seen it before the ceremony. The wedding feast came from the couple&#8217;s favorite Palo Alto restaurants, Palo Alto Sol and Fuki Sushi, and for desert they had Burdick Chocolate &#8220;mice,&#8221; which Chan and Zuckerberg had on their first date.</p>
<p>It is even said that Dr.Chan&#8217;s experiences from her medical school inspired a new initiative on Facebook to foster organ donations. It is now reported that the Facebook founder&#8217;s wealth has soared to $19 billion when he took his company public on Friday.</p>
