It's no secret that the most popular communities in social networks are a good source of income for their administrators. But the company Facebook has decided to further motivate the best of their communities. As the creator of the social network Mark Zuckerberg recently stated, the company is ready to spend 10 million US dollars to pay them as grants for development to the most interesting groups in Facebook.
As is usually the case in such situations, the entire amount will be divided among several winners. Slightly more than 100 public goods will receive $ 50,000 each, and the most successful and interesting communities in the amount of 5 pieces will receive 1 million dollars each. As Mark Zuckerberg himself stated in an interview with Reuters,
"All this is necessary in order to unite the whole world and all users, and the main goal is to help develop the most interesting areas and help billions of people to join different communities and interest groups."
Well, according to Zuckerberg's colleague Jennifer Dalsky, absolutely everything can participate in the contest, regardless of the place of residence and the number of subscribers. Winners will be selected by a panel of independent experts and Facebook employees.
"Our company wants to attract the attention of creative people with positive ideas that can benefit people not only on the web, but also in real life."
It is also worth noting that, recently, a new Downvote function is being tested in the walls of Facebook. In fact, this is a typical dislike. And the button under the post will be a lowered finger. Despite such an obvious decision, for some reason, Facebook decided to introduce it only now, because many users have long complained that there is a button that allows expressing approval, but there is no way to show a negative attitude to the author without entering into correspondence with him.
