Nov 17, 10:01PM

The move is part a big cleanup of the Instagram platform. It involves listing exactly what’s allowed with its APIs, an app permission review process that makes Instagram a gated platform, and… Read MoreOn-Demand Darwinism: Survival Of The Fastest

Nov 17, 9:20PM
We pulled together all 153 unicorns currently listed on the Crunchbase Unicorn Leaderboard and then matched them up with data provided by Glassdoor to give you, our readers, the top 20 highest paying startup unicorns.

Google+ has always been a project for Google, regardless of what you’ve read in the media. With projects, come changes…and there have been quite a few for Google+ this year.

The shift continues today with a complete… Read MoreDo iPhones Dream Of Twitter Follows? What The AI Arms Race Means For Creative Technology

Nov 17, 6:26PM
Google’s popular photo management utility, Google Photos, which was spun out from Google+ this spring and soon grew to 100 million monthly active users who have uploaded some 50 billion photos, is today getting even more useful. At least for Android users! The company says that an updated version of the app will now help users to free up storage space on their mobile devices by offering… Read MoreTumblr Launches A "GIF Maker" For Mobile, Promises More Tools For Creative Expression To Come
Nov 17, 6:00PM
Tumblr today is launching a new tool that will capitalize on its community’s love for both creating and sharing GIFs with the debut of a mobile-only “GIF Maker.” The tool, which lets you quickly turn your iPhone videos or burst photos into GIFs, will not be a standalone application, but will rather become a core feature of the main Tumblr mobile app. “Tumblr is the home… Read MoreTouch Of Modern Hits $100M ARR As It Records Its Millionth Order

Nov 17, 5:33PM
Earlier this year, Apple began offering same-day delivery of its products and accessories through its Apple Store mobile application, and then later expanded that option to its online web store thanks to its partnership with delivery service Postmates.

Nov 17, 5:10PM
Well that took no time at all. Intelligence agencies rolled right into the horror and fury in the immediate wake of the latest co-ordinated terror attacks in the French capital on Friday, to launch their latest co-ordinated assault on strong encryption — and on the tech companies creating secure comms services — seeking to scapegoat end-to-end encryption as the enabling layer… Read MoreBabyCenter Research Says Most US Moms Are Still Unfamiliar With "Sharing Economy" Services
Nov 17, 5:00PM
One of the recurring questions facing on-demand and “sharing economy” services is whether normal people will actually use them. BabyCenter decided to look at the issue by asking “mobile moms.” They found that in urban areas, 42 percent of moms had tried one of those services, a number that dropped to 21 percent outside those major cities. Not surprisingly, the best… Read MoreSmart Fragrance Dispenser Pura Scents Opens Pre-Orders On Kickstarter

History is littered with bad predictions.
