As mentioned in the case, Twitter stated that their revenue coming from data licensing would decrease over the following years. However, I believe they should not give up easily on this revenue stream if they can take control over the data licensing rather than leaving it to third party vendors they can have a more powerful offering to the market by creating a department that over looks, segments and package this product because big data is considered a very powerful trend right now and companies are wiling to invest a lot in this area.

Golden Ass Apuleius' Golden Ass, the only surviving novel of the Roman Empire, is a tale of a Greek nobleman devoting his life to the goddess Isis following his transformation to an ass and back.

In The Golden Ass, Lucius draws a strong parallel between the stepmother’s story and that of Meroe, the evil, old witch who kills Socrates when he tries to escape her lustful affections. The stepmother is metaphorically likened to a witch because doing so comments on the danger of a weak-natured woman who holds a position of power. Although no magical evils, such as the spells that Meroe casts upon Socrates, manifest themselves in the story of the stepmother, the emphasis on the unnatural transformation

Shakespeare wrote his acclaimed comedy A Midsummer Night’s Dream more than a thousand years after Apuleius’ Roman novel, The Golden Ass. Although separated by thousands of years and different in terms of plot and setting, these works share the common theme of a confused and vulnerable man finding direction by relying on a supernatural female. One of A Midsummer Night’s Dream’s many subplots is the story of Bottom, a comical figure determined to be taken seriously in his production of a Pyramus and

Very few lines are taken out, and the characters stay very true to the assumed original idea. The one main difference in the original play and this movie is the depiction of the character Nick Bottom the weaver. The original play
In Homer’s, Odyssey, we witness a strong, dominant character, Odysseus, dealing with a long journey to get back home to his kingdom, his son, Telemachus, and his wife, Penelope. In Apuleius’, The Golden Ass, the protagonist, Lucius, struggles to restore his previous form, from a donkey back to a human. At the ends of both narratives, we see how our characters reach their individual goals. Odysseus’ journey to his goal of reestablishing himself as king and head of household is an internal journey
The birth of the goddess from the castrated genitals of Uranus is an obvious allegory for how ancient poets viewed the nature of human sexuality.

grief. Whilst it is difficult to pinpoint where this strong connection to beauty leafs from, it can easily be concluded that literature- especially classical myths and fables such as Apuleius’ Eros and Psyche, first published in his series The Golden Ass have had several moral and ethical implications on society and humanity’s understanding, perception and reaction towards beauty.

Otherwise Known as The Golden Ass by Apuleius, an eccentric story of piety, used Lucius as the protagonist. Inside the main story is a love story that side tracks the reader in an intermission. The forty-seven pages, divided in three parts, of Cupid and Psyche, are introduced by the old woman in the cave as a means to tell a fairy tale or two, to make the girl feel better.
