Als het over social media gaat, hebben we het vrijwel altijd over de bekende platformen. Facebook, Instagram, Twitter, LinkedIn, WhatsApp… “Maar wacht, er is meer”, zouden ze bij Tel Sell zeggen. Naast deze bekende mainstream-kanalen zijn er namelijk ook minder bekende socials in omloop, zoals Gab. En ook WhatsApp-alternatieven winnen terrein, zoals Signal. Naast de […]

If you’re a fan of content discovery veteran, StumbleUpon, or haven’t quite been sold by its new look, then you just might have some love for a new startup out of Helsinki, Finland, called Futureful.

In order to keep pace with sexy, young newcomers like Pinterest, StumbleUpon pushed a major redesign at the end of last year, introducing a new user experience and recommendation algorithms, as well as brand channels and a “Stumble” button, which took users to random (personalized) articles based on topic. Users didn’t love the new rendition, and last week, the 10-year-old company released another big redesign — this time bringing a bold new look to its iOS apps.
What’s the difference? How social discovery takes social networking a step further Most people on Facebook have “friends” that they know or have met in real life. Family members, social pals, people you went to high school with, those you’ve met on business trips or at events, and friends of friends make up the majority […]
