Facebook, Inc. shares closed up 1.06% this past Friday, on nearly 9.5 million shares traded. The stock hit a brand new high of $183.15 during intra-day trading. There were several interesting developments with the company last week. Facebook said it is working on a tool that will help people to learn if they have been influenced by fake ads sponsored by Russia-based Internet Research Agency in the period from January 2015 to August 2017. It will be available by the end of the year for some users. Facebook also said it would be launching a tech incubator in Nigeria sometime in 2018, where it will help develop technology startups and provide digital training to 50,000 Nigerians. It was also revealed last week that famed investor Peter Thiel, who invested early on into the company, has sold 73% of his stake.

Twitter, Inc. shares closed up 0.67% this past Friday and also hit a brand new high of $22.48 during intra-day trading. News revealed last week that the company's new "save for later" feature for Tweets has a name and it's called Bookmarks. According to news that was revealed in a series of Tweets from Tina Koyama, a staff product designer who works for the company, Twitter has picked out different versions of how the Bookmarks will appear. A Twitter spokesperson declined to comment but did say, "We'll be sure to let you know if/when we have more details to share in terms of a formal announcement!" Koyama wrote, "You told us that you want Tweets you've bookmarked to be private, so only you can see it. We kept this in mind while creating designs for the feature." The Bookmarks will be saved privately but there will be an option if Twitter users want to be able to share them later in a Tweet.
