FACEBOOK COULD BE launching a news-reader service designed for mobile devices at the end of the month.
According to re/code, the service, known as “Paper,” is expected to launch in the coming weeks. It will either be a standalone mobile application or a web app that’s also designed for use on mobile.
The service will work similar to Flipboard by providing news stories by various publications accompanied by Facebook status updates. It will also place an emphasis on imagery and will use a “paper-like” format.
The project was the work of Facebook’s VP of product, Chris Cox, although the company’s CEO Mark Zuckerberg has also been involved in the process.
The project is the result of Facebook work in overhauling the news feed. The company updated its algorithms so more news stories and articles would appear and has been working on a reader service for at least a year.
The company has launched a number of services designed for mobile with varying success. Some like Messenger have been well received while others like Poke, its version of Snapchat, and Home – its operating system for Android devices – have had less success.

McAfee is like a real life Hank Scorpio
Awweee the Denver broncos!
Breaking news: John McAfee to change his surname to ‘Intel- Security’.
His comment is priceless

How To Uninstall McAfee Antivirus
Haha that’s some of the maddest shizzle I ever did see..I love him!
It’s a real killer though.
Nothing will put me off purchasing a new laptop / desktop than the sales guy saying “and it comes with anti virus software pre-installed”
not difficult to uninstall, don’t let that put you off.
Bought 3 laptops in my time. First thing i did with them was a full format. Lots of manufacturers crap comes with one. Background running memory eating crap.
Seems like the man himself is a virus
Such wit hiding behind that beard. Who’d have guessed?
I thank McAfee because they are the best at putting viruses on my computer and then even better at protecting me from that same virus ..
Ever notice how your computer always got infected just before your subscription was up ?
Same with norton, I have no virus protection on my comp and heyyyyyy gues what no viruses. Companys cteate them to get then to buy their bullshit
That’s just such bullshit, Dave! Too many AVP’s are resource heavy but very few are designed with any sort of malicious intent, esp the popular ones!
Too may people becoming stupidly cynical about these things. There are literal craptonnes of dedicated and independent communities that test, monitor and disassemble AV softwares in order to find out their true efficacy. And nobody has yet proven it to be true for the biggest players, barring Norton a few years ago with the whole ‘PIFTS.exe’ thing; when they attempted to censor people who found potentially dangerous flaws in the software.
Complacency is by far the most dangerous thing when it comes to security, be it online or personal, You may not require any third party protection, but for every one of you there are a hundred that really do, and if they decide to go without it then no matter how careful *you* are; you’ll be subjected to the inadequacies in and lackadaisical ‘use’ of resources by others.
He’s the sort of crazy SOB I’d want associated with my company
So who is more excited with the name change?
He killed his neighbour? That’s real cyber crime
Belize is in Central America.
Isn’t that where Mike went on ‘vacation’ in Breaking Bad?!!!
His comments are a bit harsh. Symantec is the worst software on the planet. McAfee only gets silver.
Check out YouTube video I posted here, it’s very funny. It’s not a vid on how to uninstall, it’s mcafee himself taking the pi#s
Watched it, it’s hilarious!!
That McAfee antivirus kills anything that gets in its way…..
He is really chuck norris stupid evil twin
McAfee ? anti virus ? What are these of which you speak…..
I laughed so much at his spectacular comment! Brilliant!
They’d wanna do more than just change the name
Now that’s what you call a well lived in face if ever I saw one.
You’d think he could afford better highlights too.
have your say
