I know it’s been a long time coming, and a tweet is what reminded me that I needed to update my social timeline, so here we are. Of interest is the lack of new start-ups in social platforms and apps from late 2015 to the present. There were a few that Google and a […]
It’s that time of year again. I’ve updated the Social Media Timeline to include the (one) that has cropped up, though, to be honest I have no idea what the point of Vero is, but I do have it. Another thing to consider in this timeline is the lack of non-western social media platforms. […]
