Sheryl Sandberg, the Chief Operations Officer at Facebook, spoke at TED about why a smaller percentage of women than men reach the top of their professions — and offers some advice to women aiming for corporate or academic success.

One interesting piece of advice: women may hold themselves back in their professions by starting to make plans for children well before they’re pregnant. “Don’t leave before you leave,” says Sandberg.

Five Facebook Trends That Need to Die... NOW!

We all love Facebook(secretly). For women, it's a way to post pictures of your engagement ring and self-esteem boosting phrases to make you look to all your friends like your life is better than theirs. For guys, it's a way to look at photos of women you've had sex with or want to have sex with and imagine them naked. In short, it's awesome(especially when your drunk). But, with all the fun, there are some drawbacks....

Visualizing Facebook Friendships

http://www.visualnews.com/2010/12/14/visualizing-facebook-friendships/

What does the communication pattern of 500 million Facebook users look like? Intern Paul Butler from Facebook’s data infrastructure engineering team hit upon some interesting geographical data he wasn’t expecting. Starting with a blank image, Butler used a sample of 10 million users from Facebook’s data warehouse and used the powerful R project to plot each user’s location by longitude and latitude. He then added the locations of each user’s friends and connected them with various weighted arcs of light based on the distance between friends and the quantity of other relationships between others from the same city-to-city connection. As he performed what he called his ‘sanity test’ a rough outline of the globe was apparent. Countries and political borders popped into view… but more interestingly, the world of social connections and borders was visible.

The video shows a glimpse of a redesigned profile page — a big deal given that these profiles are really core to the social network. Well, we've got the full rundown on what's new and what's changing. Read on.

There are two big themes to the revamped design: a bigger emphasis on keeping things visually interesting, and streamlining the design to make it easier to find information people actually care about. Facebook Product Manager Peter Deng explains that on the old profiles, some of the most popular features and information has been a pain to find — the 'View more photos' link, for example, is immesely popular, but it's been nestled between far less important links for years.
