Snapchat is not only the platform of choice of Millennial and Gen Z audiences in Saudi Arabia, but also incredibly popular amongst parents, according to a recent study by Snap Inc. conducted with Kantar. Snapchat already has a monthly addressable reach of 19.5 million in the Kingdom and is the platform of choice for many Saudi’s. The study has found that 71% of parents in Saudi Arabia now use Snapchat, and that advertising on the platform plays an influential role in their purchasing decisions. The findings suggest that Snapchat encourages responsible conversations among family members on their purchase decisions. Among these parents, almost 9 in 10 feel positive about the advertising they see on Snapchat across product categories, and over 80% state that this advertising influences their purchase decisions. Accordingly, more than 9 in 10 take action after seeing an ad that interests them. This is inclusive of clicking on an ad directly, reading product reviews online, or asking friends and family members. Snapchat parents are also quite democratic in including other family members when making purchasing decisions. A majority of Snapchat parents claim that their children influence their purchase decisions in some way, and most parents with teenage or adult children rely on their…

The Johan Sverdrup oil field in the North SeaCarina Johansen | AFP | Getty ImagesOil prices were mixed on Friday, but headed for their first weekly losses in at least eight weeks after U.S. oil stocks rose more than expected, and Iran flagged it was resuming talks with Western powers which could lead to an end to sanctions.U.S. West Texas Intermediate (WTI) crude futures fell 4 cents to $82.77 a barrel by 0151 GMT, while Brent crude futures rose 12 cents, or 0.1%, to $84.44 a barrel.Both benchmarks were on track to fall about 1% for the week — the first weekly drop in 10 weeks for WTI and the first in eight weeks for Brent.The heat has come out of a two-month rally stoked by tight gas and coal prices in Europe and China which had spurred fuel-switching in power generation to fuel oil and diesel while oil supplies were tight.U.S. oil stocks rose much more than expected in the week to Oct. 22, data from the Energy Information Administration showed on Wed.All eyes are on the next meeting of the Organization of the Petroleum Exporting Countries (OPEC), Russia and their allies, together called OPEC+, on Nov. 4, with analysts expecting them to stick to their plan to…

The midfielder claimed he meant no contempt by his social media post after his former boss was sackedMiralem Pjanic has ended his prolonged feud with former Barcelona manager Ronald Koeman after Koeman was sacked on Wednesday night. The Besiktas midfielder, who sparred with Koeman repeatedly following his Blaugrana exile, denied an ambiguous, since-deleted Instagram post was meant as disrespect towards the head coach, and the Bosnia and Herzegovina star appeared to put the entire clash behind him. Pjanic wrote that "it’s very easy to misquote someone and place them out of context" and added he was "raised to respect everyone" and didn't want to cause further problems.

"Is that you?” Biniyam Shibre asked Ariela Weinberg upon seeing her choice of costumes for Halloween 2021, which she shared with 90 Day Fiancé fans. 90 Day Fiancé: The Other Way star Ariela Weinberg showed off her new look and surprised fans by asking them for help with her costumes for Halloween 2021 on Instagram. The New Jersey resident has had one of the most stunning makeovers in the franchise since her debut in season 2 of the 90 Day Fiancé spin-off with Biniyam Shibre. Ari has been earning praise for her weight loss and major style transformation after welcoming baby Aviel in December 2019. Her transformation has also made fans wonder if Ariela indulged in plastic surgery after returning home to America from Ethiopia, but the freelance travel writer denied going under the knife. While Biniyam constantly worried about Ariela leaving him like his ex-wife, Bria, did, as soon as she exited Addis Ababa, the tables in their 90 Day Fiancé relationship turned. Fans felt sympathy for Biniyam, who wept his heart out at the airport while saying goodbye to son Aviel. However, he is now busy spending time with his friends at the club. Not only does Biniyam hang…

Home News VFX (Image credit: Facebook/Apple/Future) Facebook has spent a lot of time in hot water as of late, with a number of controversies piling up on the social media giant. But this leaked video for its employees may be its worst crime yet. A cringe-wordy video made for Facebook employees has been spotted on Vimeo, and we seriously can't believe anyone thought this was a good idea. The video promoting 'open enrollment' for employees to choose their benefits is full of awkward singing, dancing and, erm, virtual reality? We're sure this nightmarish glee-style music video will give you a healthy dose of second-hand embarrassment. If you believe you can make a better video than Facebook's internal promotions team (we definitely reckon you can), then make sure you check out our round-up of the best video editing software. The video starts with performers serenading the viewer about open enrollment and employee benefits over a video call. The video then suddenly jumps right into two groups of people clicking, singing and dancing at each other in true West Side Story fashion. And just when you thought it couldn't get any worse, you're transported to a virtual reality world where the actors are replaced…
