The enormous reaction on the wall is not surprising, Modi won by a surprising margin and has a tremendous social vicinity. He has more than 4 million supporters on Twitter, more than 14 million Likes on Facebook, tweets practically every day and into the fight selfies.

Modi’s triumph put forth an enormous expression about the Bharatiya Janata Party. The Indian National Congress has controlled the country’s more level house of parliament for the dominant part of time since India got free in 1947, however an expanding scorn for political debasement and Modi’s record of expanding financial open door for the white collar class as the boss chose official in the northwestern state of Gujarat have slung him to the leader of the nation.

Previously, articles pinned on Pinterest only contained photos from the article with a link at the bottom. (Users who wanted to include the article title or description had to add it manually.)

“We’re always looking for ways to make pins more useful so that when you discover and pin something great, it’s easy to act on it, whether that’s cooking a dish, watching a movie, buying a new gadget or reading an article,” Jon Parise, a software engineer at Pinterest, wrote on the company’s blog.

Pinterest is hoping that the change will encourage more users to pin and share articles they find interesting. The new updates could also encourage more media outlets to utilize Pinterest as a tool to promote content with
readers like they do with Facebook, Twitter, and Google+.

Pinterest says that users are pinning five million articles to the site per day and many use reading boards to save articles to consume at a later time. As of Tuesday, the new feature will only work with articles from a small number of publications, including Mashable, Rolling Stone and The New Yorker.

The country will witness Lok Sabha (Lower House) elections in 2014. Once again we would see the politicians coming out on the streets, knocking the doors of the common man and begging for their valuable votes. Political party promotions would see a lot of investments made for social media. The All India Congress Party, that has been ruling the country for the last two terms, has finally started scouting for a suitable digital or social media agency. The story was reported by Excahnge4Media.

The call for a pitch from various digital and social media agencies would be monitored by Deepender Singh Hooda, Member of Parliament, Haryana, and Vikramjeet Singh, President, Punjab Youth Congress. However, Digvijay Singh, Congress General Secretary will be taking the final decision for assigning the duties to the chosen agency.

With less than a year’s time, the AICC has pulled up its socks to create a better presence, impress the youth especially from urban areas and to manage its online reputation along with counter attacking its biggest rival party. The move is nothing to be appreciated for two reasons – 1) It is a late move, and 2) Politicians think that social media is still a supplement and has a long way to go before it becomes main stream.

The last time we had heard from AICC was when it had planned to rope in Twitter influentials like Shashi Tharoor, Shah Rukh Khan, Shabana Azmi and other techno savvy leaders to spread its message. The idea is to have these eminent personalities who have a great presence on social media, to drive the AICC party’s message. These would not only deal countering negative sentiments but also disseminate information about the party’s stand on trending issues and also the accomplishments of the party.

Getting a specialized agency would definitely change things but will that be enough to save the soul of AICC online or compete against a party like BJP who have been the torch bearers at least on social media. Furthermore, how would AICC handle the situation if there is an early election in 2013?
