FACEBOOK TRYING TO SAVE LIVES OF THOSE TRYING TO SUICIDE


FACEBOOK TRYING TO SAVE LIVES OF THOSE TRYING TO SUICIDE BY LAUNCHING A NEW SERVICE
Facebook has teamed up with the National Suicide Prevention Lifeline to provide a service that empowers friends to fight suicide.
Here's how it works...
If you are browsing Facebook and spot a suicidal post, you can click on a Report Suicidal Content link next to the comment. Facebook will rely solely on it's users to detect these comments, so its up to us to act as first responders, get immediate help for our friends who are suffering.
Once Facebook receives a report, they will send an e-mail to the troubled individual. For months now, the e-mails have provided numbers of crisis hotlines and encouraged users to call. But now they're expanding the service.
In addition to the phone support, Facebook is offering a link to a confidential Facebook chat session with a professional. Since many people would rather talk online rather than the phone, they hope to reach out to more users.
A quick scan of Facebook, and I couldn't find the link to report suicidal content. But I imagine it will be rolling out soon. And the sooner, the better.

Lately Facebook has been bringing in lot of new features.Be it new chat, Live Feed, Announcement of Facebook Timeline and much more.They have almost completely overhauled everything that people were used to.
When Facebook was in its intial stages the character limit for status update was only 160 which was still greater than the present character limit of Twitter (140 Characters).
In March 2009 the character limit was incremented to 420 characters.In 2010 the limit was not changed at all but in year 2011 Facebook has revised the character limit three times.
Facebook’s Journalist Program Manager Vadim Lavrusik, in a blog post, said that “In September, we increased the character limit on status updates to 5,000 characters. Today, we’re announcing that you can now write posts with more than 60,000 characters.” Following this, it has been found that the user can now post a status update of up to 63,206 characters.
This limit is not escalated only for Status updates but also for messages.So don’t get surprised if your friends start’s annoying you by sending large messages.
Facebook may have left Twitter miles behind in terms of character limit but it is trailing to Google+ which permits you to post Status upto 1,00,000 character.
