Of all Facebook’s data sets, it’s the social graph that’s truly unique. It’s spent nine years getting you to confirm who you know, and apparently it’s sick of handing over your friend list to competitors. This week it cut off both Twitter’s new photo app Vine and messaging app Voxer from Find Friends, Facebook’s API that lets you connect with Facebook friends on other apps.

However, other companies have bits and pieces of these data sets.

Some people blindly accept most requests they get, others send them to anyone they meet once, and all the connections grow stale over the years.

It can be the difference between an empty feed and low retention, and a vibrant, addictive feed teeming with content from people you care about. http://www.mywebproxy.org/ http://www.myfacebookblog.com/ http://www.youtubeunblocked.net/
