This year, Puppy Bowl XII will be broadcast partially in 360 degree video. Long live virtual reality. It will feature 84 puppies from 44 rescues across the United States and will represent “Team… Read More

Stables full of startups are being turned into glue, whether they’re mythical beasts, donkeys in party hats, or just baby horses. The latest forced to do layoffs is Maker Media, the champion of the do-it-yourself movement. 10 years and $10 million later, multiple sources tell me that Maker Media laid off 20% of its staff today. When asked, Maker Media confirmed to me that 17 people… Read More
Chat chat chat, talk talk talk. We love it, you love it. Messaging apps are the hot for 2016 (again) and there’s seemingly a niche platform for all of us. There’s also big platforms for the rest of the world like Messenger, WhatsApp, Line, Snapchat and Hangouts (and tons more). One new app, Peach, is pretty interesting. Peach was created by the founder of Vine, Dom Hofmann. Read More
Storytelling is fun, but it’s also not easy. You have to have an idea of what story you want to tell and what pieces to include to illustrate it. Sometimes it’s words, sometimes it’s photos, sometimes it’s videos, and sometimes it’s all of them. Moments is a tool for Twitter itself to pull together these things and nag you talk you into viewing them. Read More
Facebook is narrowing the focus of the LiveRail ad platform that it acquired in 2014 — the company says it will no longer be accepting new customers to LiveRail’s ad serving business. Facebook’s head of advertising technology David Jakubowski said that’s not actually a dramatic change, since the LiveRail ad server represents a small part of the business (“tens… Read More
Kill SMS, spawn a chat bot platform, bring friends together offline, improve artificial intelligence, and delight people. That’s Facebook Messenger’s roadmap for 2016 now that it has 800 million monthly active users, up from 700 million in June, 600 Million in March, and 500 million last November. That makes Messenger the fastest growing app of 2015, according to Nielsen, and it… Read More
Instagram’s answer to Snapchat’s Live Stories isn’t just for holidays and big events any more. Internally, they’re known as Spotlight Compilations — vertical slideshows of the best videos related to a theme, like “Dynamic Duos – Odd Couple Animal Videos” or “Ramped Up – Rad Skateboarding Videos”. They appear in the Spotlight… Read More
Buy your rainbow puke, heart eyes, or demon face Snapchat selfie lenses now, because then you’ll get to keep them after it shuts down its lens store this Friday. Today Snapchat announced it will no longer sell the $1 ways to animate your mug so it can focus on advertising, including sponsored lenses branded with movies or products. You’ll still be able to choose from 10 free lenses… Read More
M won’t be the only artificial intelligence on Facebook Messenger. Facebook has given some developers access to an unannounced Chat SDK that allows them to build interactive experiences and “bots” in Messenger for shopping, booking travel, and more, sources with direct knowledge of the SDK confirm.

As you know, reports are surfacing about Twitter’s interest in potentially monkeying around with the number of characters you can tweet…or share along with a tweet. 5,000? 10,000? Well, certainly more than the current 140 characters. As the day went on, Twitter’s stock hit an all-time low ($21.89) on the news that this change might be coming along, and its CEO Jack Dorsey took… Read More
So much for the Christmas bump for Fitbit shares. After seeing a huge boost following Christmas — when the app topped the App Store, indicating that the device seemed to be a popular gift — Fitbit shares tumbled more than 18% in trading today. Previously, Fitbit had gained 38% on the year after going public in 2015, and bumped an extra 5% after topping the App Store. The likely… Read More
On January 3, three sad days after folks celebrated the New Year by sharing a kiss with a lover, Tinder had its biggest growth day in its entire history, recording the most downloads in a single day ever and the most growth of active users in a single day. Which explains why you might have received a push notification promising 2x or 3x the likelihood of a match in your area this week.… Read More
So, Recode reported today that Twitter was tinkering around with the idea of expanding its 140 character limit to a number a bit higher….10,000 characters. But what, you ask (and I’m glad you did), does 10,000 characters look like? Well, hey. Let’s find out. Soooo, did you see the Warriors game last night? Crazy, right? It was nice to see Harrison Barnes back and the entire… Read More
No, you’re not going to have article-length tweets overwhelming you timeline, but Twitter is looking to let you write more without leaving the service. The company is mulling a new option that would let you write up to 10,000 characters, but only show the first 140 in the timeline with a button to reveal the rest. Re/Code reports the feature might launch in late Q1. This “Beyond… Read More
Twitter is announcing a new “conversational” ad unit today, where users are prompted to personalize and share a marketer’s message. These ads are similar to Twitter’s existing Promoted Tweets, but with a key difference — the tweet is more like a poll question, where users can weigh in by choosing from multiple hashtags. After they hit one of the… Read More
People still don’t get social media. And I’m not just talking about Donald Trump. It’s an established best practice for building community support for a point of view or an initiative, and that’s because it works. There’s no better way to harness those who already agree with you as surrogates to carry your message to other people who know and trust them, whom… Read More
Politicians in 25 countries will be shifting a little more uneasily on their benches this week as Politwoops, the service that tracks politicians’ deleted tweets, and can thus flag up attempts to edit previously expressed public opinions or cover up gaffes (as well as more mundane stuff like typos), has gone back online.

Ephemerality be damned. Some art deserves to live longer than 24 hours. So rather than just squirrel away your saved Snapchat Stories, you can upload them to Slinger. It’s a new app aiming to be the permanent home for vertical videos. And thanks to its Popular page and the ability to Like videos, it can help you discover content creators to follow in ways Snapchat lacks. You could write… Read More
