    This e-reading app, is now available for both iPhone and Android users. It is a very efficient way to get children to read, especially now that libraries are becoming an odd commodity. It is a paid app, with a wide road of expansion ahead, since user friendly learning/educational apps for children are few and far between.

    LinkedIn's focus on the mobile experience has been wildly successful, with the company recently recording its 300 millionth user. I still think it's weird that I get emails asking me to congratulate people on their work anniversaries.

    This article talks about social media and how they've started adding a geolocation feature. It presents some scary features due to that. The user is essentially alerting anyone who reads that tweet where they are, or if they're not at home making it easier for robberies or other crimes.

    A Forbes article that looks shallowly at a group of very in-depth suggested trends that seem to be a little far and high reaching, but I do agree that they are on point. I can see that this article is correct, but it will take more than one year for the commonplace Internet user to realize how it has infiltrated their every day Internet experience.

    Everyone has different needs, and the social landscape is shifting accordingly.
  • Greg Steen on 22 Apr 14
     
    One good (though obvious) point they make is that each of these platforms fits into the life of the user in a different way. Five years ago it was somewhat winner-take-all in terms of user base, but that's no longer the case. Understanding the cultural differences across platforms is also really important to developing concepts for those platforms.

    This is a very big deal - most times when apps get bought out, their privacy policies are largely dismissed or completely changed. Due to the massive popularity and international use of WhatsApp, this is not a possibility. So the question is, if there will be no ads or information selling, how will Facebook make a profit with this aquisition? How can we as interactives sell this product?

    Yeah, Facebook is notoriously uninterested in people's privacy, but they seem to be in a bit of a bind here. Of course Zuckerberg has always said "the revenue funds the product, not he other way around" - in direct contrast to basically every company ever.
