Apple Becomes The Most Valuable Company

Apple has taken their first position in the world as it had lost many of its rankings after the Steve Jobs death tragedy.

Since 2012 Apple was able to grow from $36 billion to $76 billion within ten months as shown by the the Interbrand's 2012 global brand rankings. Since the 2012 growth Apple has been holding second position after Coca-Cola. This has been a very great improvement by Apple as they had shown a very good growth that year as they moved from position eight to position two.

In 2014 Apple was able to take over the first position once again after the negative critics the company had as it had a massive growth from $76 billion in 2012 to a staggering $$124.2 billion in 2014. Since then Apple has been holding the position as the most valuable company until Google stepped in the beginning of 2016 due to the bad financial reports that were reported by Apple and surprisingly Apple was able to reclaim their position. The quick bost in the company value has been boosted by the announcement of the Iphone 5se and the Iphone Air 3 , which had rapidly increased the share demand.

What are your thoughts, do you think that Apple will continue hold position number one despite the presence of its rivals Google, Microsoft and Facebook? Please leave your opinions on the comment box below.

Facebook Working on a 'Dislike' button

The long waited for 'Dislike' button which many Facebook users have been waiting for, has been confirmed by the CEO Mark Zuckerburg as one of their plans for development.

In 2009  Facebook was tempted by some users who were suggesting the company to bring out a "Dislike"
Button which will look like an inverted like button. Facebook did not accept the 'Dislike' button because it was believed that the button would not sound good to other users as many may feel bad or harassed when their posts were disliked, but due to many requests by the social network users Facebook has no choice but to make the 'Dislike' button to all of the app users.

This button is believed to be a disaster by many media houses as they believe that this button will not go well as other social networks have used it before but did not work very well as planned, this button will eventually cause a reduce on the self esteem of some users causing them to not post often on their walls as they might fear of getting more dislikes than likes.

Mark Zuckerburg believes that the Dislike should not be used to express discouragement but instead it should be used to impress sympathy, not to make others feel bad about their post. The 'dislike' button is designed to show compassion not to show hatred or any form of disrespect towards other users. As Zuckerburg confirmed that with the dislike button they are surely not intended to turn facebook into a forum where users will like or dislike, but to use the 'dislike' button to show compassion.

With the Facebook 'Dislike' button rolling out in the next months, what do you have to say about this great move by Facebook. Please feel free to leave your views in the comment box below.
