I have nothing against Instagram, I SWEAR, I have nothing against Instagram. The only inconsistency… I have never used Instagram. This post is an attempt to find out why. Shawn Blanc pointed me to the article “Instagram Founder Kevin Systrom’s 30-Second Rule for App Success,” which, exactly like the title states, is about how you [...]
Another way to phrase this is, whether mobile commerce will drastically change life as we know it or not? Disruptive technologies, according to Christensen, lead to products that are cheaper, simpler, and, often, more convenient to use. By that definition, e-commerce could certainly be seen as a disruptive innovation over brick & mortar commerce, and [...]
Hi, Fidji here.

Not only does Frederic have a genuine passion for information and communication technologies, but he also [...]
Just a quick find that I found fun, and genuinely interesting, as it is not yet another try at bulky and/or expensive VR systems (remember those huge helmets and gloves that made you dizzy after 30 seconds?).
