Don’t be surprise if you’re getting smarter while spending more and more time staring at your Facebook wall everyday. As Facebook Data Team Study reveals that the highly diverse data coming from your strong and weak network ties significantly influence your media consumption more than you might think.

According to the study, that you are 10-times more likely you’ll share “novel content†and most of the diverse information you’ll be sharing comes from weak ties friends, meaning those people that rarely you meet or talk with. “In short, weak ties have the greatest potential to expose their friends to information that they would not have otherwise discovered,†the study points.
On the other hand, your strong ties more likely to see and share your links that would be an interesting feed to their weak ties.
And, don’t forget those news links from Facebook page subscriptions you made, they play a great part for new information coming on your network.

Bah, and the "study" was funded by facebook, i guess.

All kidding aside, any thing can benefit you as long as you know how to use it, but we all know what bulk of the folks do on the facebook, don't we ?
 
Yeah, biased study from our 'owners', saying: GIVE ME ALL YOUR DATA, SO I CAN TRACK EVERY FUCKING MOVE YOU MAKE ON THE INTERNET.

a study :facepalm:

Playing farmville, or poker makes you soooooo fucking genius... or poking someone...
 
so let me get this straight... looking at photos, playing games, bashing people, and posting retarded updates makes you smarter ?

-_-
 
damn it why listen to what they say? just do what you feel is right , using fb makes me feel like a coward so i don't use it much , so fuck the research , tomorrow if some gay scientist says being gay makes you live longer will you start being a gay or lesbian?
