Faceboo Co- Fonder Mark Zuckerberg Expect Baby Girl.

Billionaire CEO of Facebook Mark Zuckerberg and his wife Priscilla Chan are going to be parents. Mark shared the photo on the left announcing the happy news and also shared details about previous miscarriages 'to give more people the same hope they felt and help more people feel comfortable sharing their stories as well'. The couple were married in 2012. The soon-to-be father proudly shared this emotional post with his 33.2 million followers on Facebook.
"Priscilla and I have some exciting news: we're expecting a baby girl! We've been trying to have a child for a couple of years and have had three miscarriages along the way. 
"You feel so hopeful when you learn you're going to have a child. You start imagining who they'll become and dreaming of hopes for their future. You start making plans, and then they're gone. It's a lonely experience.
Most people don't discuss miscarriages because you worry your problems will distance you or reflect upon you—as if you're defective or did something to cause this. So you struggle on your own." 
"Our good news is that our pregnancy is now far enough along that the risk of loss is very low and we are very hopeful," he said. 
"Cilla and our child are both healthy, I'm extremely excited to meet her and our dog Beast has no idea what's coming." 
"So I'm already convinced she takes after me," 
"We're looking forward to welcoming her into the world and sharing more soon when she's ready to come out and meet everyone!"

Congratulations to the couple!!!

Facebook Now Lets You Choose What Happens To Your Account After You Die

facebook_


Facebook has introduced a new feature today that allows users to select a legacy contact, who will be able to manage their account after they pass away.

Once Facebook has been notified of a user passing away, the social network will ‘memorialize’ the account and enable access to the legacy contact who can manage the profile.

Once everything is configured, this contact will be able to announce a memorial service (or share a personal message) on the top of the Timeline, respond to new friend requests, update profile and cover photos, and even download an archive of photos, posts and profile information that person shared on Facebook.

Note that personal messages will be off limits and the legacy contact is unable to log in as the deceased.

The legacy contacts feature is currently rolling out in the US to begin with and Facebook will expand the rollout to more countries over time.

If you’d rather not have someone access your profile once you’ve passed away, you can simply have Facebook delete your account altogether.

8 Interesting Ways Facebook Could Destroy Your Marriage

facebook unhappy [MUST READ] 8 Interesting Ways Facebook Could Destroy Your Marriage
Here are eight and a half things you’re doing on Social media that could damage your marriage/Relationship.

1. You’re checking Facebook on your phone, instead of talking to your partner.

According to new research people spend more time on their smartphones than with their partners.

People tend to use their smartphones for about 119 minutes a day, whereas they spend about 97 minutes with their loved one, the research found.

2. You care more about what other people post than what your partner does.

Some would call this “the Instagram effect,” but the idea is simple: You care more about what your friends and family are posting on Facebook than you do what your wife or husband is doing right in front of you.

Instagram does have more than 150 million users (many of whom post their stuff to Facebook, too), so people are bound to see some things on there that can grab them and take their attention away from their spouses.

3. You’re not liking your loved one’s status.

This may seem simple, but it’s an important one.

Much has been written by bloggers and dating websites about the effects of liking someone’s statuses, mostly because a large number of likes implies that the liker is interested in the likee. By avoiding the like button for your loved one, you may be giving off a colder impression about how you feel about them.

4. You like someone else’s statuses way too much!

According to data from Facebook, Facebook interactions are heavy between soon-to-be couples, with post sharing and likes increasing within the 100 days before a relationship starts.

By liking someone else’s statuses and photos too much, you may be giving off the wrong impression that you’re not tied down into a relationship and that you’re looking for a way to leave it.

5. Careful with some of those Facebook friends.

It’s no question that you and your spouse are going to have some mutual friends.

But be wary of them because they may cause you strife. According to the Pew Research Center, half of Facebook’s users have more than 200 friends in their network, so a shared friend is bound to pop up among married couples.

Just make sure those 200 friends aren’t going to comment something off-putting or discouraging on your loved one’s status.

It may raise problems within the marriage and friend circles, too.

6. You quit Facebook, but you still ask questions about it.

According to research cited by the DailyMail, more people are saying their goodbye to the social network, as they’re worried about privacy and getting addicted to the website.

But when you’re done with Facebook, you may start asking your loved one some questions about it — who your spouse is interacting with, what they’ve been posting and what they recently saw on the website, for example — and that could raise arguments and complications regarding trust.

7. You didn’t do a good job with your privacy settings.

Relationship should involve trust and being able to open up to someone. But Facebook creates the possibility for many other people to see what you’re all about.

NBC News reported that privacy is a major concern for Facebook users, as it leaves them open to review and judgement by their friends and possibly the public.

Conversations that should happen first between husband and wife are posted for the public to see.

For example, one source told Desert News National that his wife shared that he and his wife’s kid started on walking on Facebook before sharing it with him.

That was not an easy conversation to have. Facebook may also lead to people finding out things about you before your spouse knows about them, which is another sign of failing trust.

8. Your Facebook photo isn’t right!

That’s right.

What you display as a profile picture says a lot about you. In fact, The Atlantic reported that what makes a profile picture look good is the amount of engagement it gets — such as likes, shares and comments.

But if you keep something unattractive up — like a photo no one likes — your spouse may feel the pressure to ask you to take it down.

I got this at Niajaloaded and i thought of sharing it with my readers  , Hope you keep to the advise ..
