WordPress.com now lets you write and collaborate in Google Docs by Romain Dillet (@romaindillet) via

First Impressions by me:

The first edition of this add-on is really basic but it works smoothly and I am sure that in the near future new features will be added and in few months we all use it very often. Not only to just write a simple “link” post as this one.

For example, I would like to have more features related to image managing, the possibility to insert Tags directly from Docs and other useful commands that I usually use (post format, excerpt, etc…). But… I know… it’s just the first version of the add-on…. And it is really better than the email publishing that I used till few months ago.

Facebook’s Ad Targeting Is Under Scrutiny About Whether It Allows Discrimination – ProPublica suggests illegality – by Lauren Johnson via

“… Christian Martinez, Facebook’s head of multicultural, posted a response to the article.

“A nonprofit that’s hosting a career fair for the Hispanic community can use Facebook ads to reach people who have an interest in that community. And a merchant selling hair-care products that are designed for black women can reach people who are most likely to want its products,” he wrote.

“That merchant also may want to exclude other ethnicities for whom their hair care products are not relevant—this is a process known in the ad industry as “exclusion targeting.”…”
