New feature to prevent non-standard content from spreading on Twitter Twitter  started   testing a feature that was meant to tell users not to forget to read an article before re-tweeting it. It helps remind people that sharing something without seeing can help spread rumors. Now this feature is being introduced for everyone. The user will try to re-tweet an article that he has not open on Twitter, so a pop-up text will appear on which the headline does not tell the full story. Then you will be asked if you really want to share it without reading it. According to Twitter, a limited number of people tested the feature, and 40% of the people started to see the articles open after the pop-up session. The company expects that when this feature is available to everyone, people will be encouraged to share information better. The company did not specify whether the feature would reduce sharing fake news, but it is not difficult to imagine that it will encourage people to share quality content

Google Meet Google had in May this year made its video conferencing service, Mate, free for all users, to facilitate people in interaction during the Wake of Virus. The Meet can be a video call for hundred peoples at a time, while the feature includes schedules, screen sharing and real time captions. There is no time for video calls on this free version of Google Mate, but the facility has been running since September 30. In fact, from October 1, the free version of Google Mate will limit the duration of video calls to sixty minutes. That means that now users have a few days to avail unlimited video calls, after which they can make limited distance calls. However, the sixty minutes period from Google is more than forty minutes of zoom. Well, if you are not happy with the calls for a limited time, some other free services are available.
