Micro bloggers:have you ever compared the number of fans on your Sina Weibo or Tencent micro blog with those of your friends ?Don’t imagine you have more fans just because your number is bigger——some of them might be “zombie fans”,or fake(假的)followers.
That’s what Chen Chuanliang ,creator of Leijian Network,found when he bet against his friend several months ago.Chen,who used to do data mining for Microsoft Asia Research Institute,discovered that there were far more invalid(無效的)micro blog accounts than he had imagined.
Later Chen picked 1 0 users on Sina Weibo and analyzed their statistics.Kai-Fu Lee,the former CEO of Google China,who’s on Chen’s list of research,posted a message on his micro blog after he found out that he had more than 1 million fake fans(out of about 5 million),joking“I have 1 million zombie fans ?If united,we can finally defeat those plants.”
According to a report by S Weekly in March,zombie fans on micro blogs are defined as invalid accounts signed up by network companies for the purpose of increasing the number of fans for certain users and getting them more attention.
And this kind of fake followers are also very much alive on Western social networks such as Twitter and Facebook .
The Financial Times reported in August,that Newt Gingrich,a Republican candidate in the US presidential election,bought about 80 percent of his 1.3 million Twitter followers and tried to use them as help in his campaign.
Now there are also business deals through which users can get hundreds of thousands of fans for their micro blog accounts,by paying a small amount of money.
“We have been working to find ways to block or delete those invalid accounts,”Mao Taotao,a spokesperson for Sina Weibo told S Weekly.
“But as the fake accounts grow so fast,they’re going to be here for a while.

Dear Daughter,
As we drove off from Columbia, I wanted to write to tell you that is on my mind.
First, I want to tell you how proud we are. Getting into Columbia is real testament (證明) of what a great well – rounded student you are. You should be as proud of yourself as we are.
Your college years will be the most important of your life. It is in college that you will discover what learning is about. This will be the period when you go from teacher taught to master inspired, after which you must become self – learner. So do take each subject seriously, and even if what you learn is of no practical use in real life, the learning skills you get will be something you will value forever.
Follow your passion in college. Take courses you think you will enjoy. Don’t be bothered by what others think or say, but make up your own mind. Most importantly, make true friends and be happy. Don’t worry about their hobbies, grades, looks, or even personalities.
Start planning early what you’d like to do. Where would you like to live? What would you like to learn? I think your plan to study fashion is good, and you should decide where you want to be, and get onto the right courses. I will always be there for you, but the time has come for you to be in the driver’s seat – this is your life, and you need to be in corral. Being in control feels great. Try it, and you’ll love it!
So please treasure your college years – make the best use of your free time, become an in depended ticker in control of your destiny, and learn through your successes and challengers.
May your years at Columbia be the happiest of your life, and may you grow into just what you dream to be .
Love,
Dad (& Mom)
