Facebook wants to minimize the amount of spam posts you see on your News Feed. The social network plans to block like-baiting, frequently circulated content, and spammy links. Like-baiting includes posts that say “like if you agree, share if you disagree, etc.” Frequently circulated content include statuses and photos that are continuously re-shared to try to generate engagement. And spammy links are those that mislead people into clicking on links that re-direct to questionable sites.

Amazon has already invaded the e-book space through Kindle but it looks like they want to expand into the comic book space with their newest acquisition. Amazon has just bought comiXology, a digital comic book service. While the deal isn’t closed yet, comiXology CEO David Steinberger expresses his approval of the agreement. “Working together, we look to accelerate a new age for comic books and graphic novels,” Steinberger says.
Amazon said they will find a way for Kindle and comiXology to work together as Kindle already offers single issues and graphic novels. The company also plans to retain comiXology’s branding and they will continue to support existing apps.
