On Thursday, Donald Trump will walk into the Great Hall of the People in Beijing, shake Xi Jinping's hand, and declare it a great meeting. There will be announcements. There will be numbers — billions of dollars in Chinese purchase commitments, a new bilateral mechanism with an important-sounding name, possibly a joint statement on Iran. Trump will post on Truth Social. Markets will rally briefly. Pundits will argue about who won. None of that will tell you what actually happened. What is actually happening in Beijing this week is something more consequential and more uncomfortable than the summit theatre will reveal: two leaders of two deeply mutually dependent superpowers, both of whom need this meeting to succeed for entirely different reasons, sitting across a table in a world that has already moved past the assumptions that defined their last nine months of negotiations.

Let's start by saying that a lot of features from Twitter have been implemented on Facebook. This has been called the Twitterfication of Facebook.

You can find all friends and family and you can all get together on Facebook and catch up.
Twitter was started with the question what are you doing?. Now the question has been changed to What's happening?. Well whatever be the question.

if you want to get involved in current events and activities around the world today then Twitter is for you.
