Tocquigny's curator insight,

Facebook's $1 billion or so purchase of Instagram last year launched many a tech entrepreneur's dream, but with it there was a tacit acknowledgment of scaled-down ambitions. Maybe you can't come up with the next Twitter, but there's always the chance that your app will win the lottery and make the big time. The analogy is apt. Your chances of breaking through are literally about one in a billion at this point, though in theory a good idea will greatly increase your odds. Those expecting more than an Instagram Lite will be disappointed, but if you accept the premise that the next Facebook or Twitter isn't lurking somewhere in Austin this year, you may enjoy SXSWi on its own 2013 terms. Nevertheless, Hugh Forrest, Director of SXSW Interactive says he's already bracing for the post-show hand-wringing "There was no Twitter this year" columns. "When Twitter launched in 2007, it wasn’t Twitter for two years," Forrest says. "If there's another Twitter, we won’t know until 2015. There's a weird kind of time lag." For those who can't wait until 2015, here are some hot startups to watch this year, which we've grouped into categories. Delete the scoop?

In our 2012 Most Anticipated Book Adaptations article, we picked The Great Gatsby for the #4 slot. Since the writing of that article, the calendar has changed to 2013 and The Great Gatsby still hasn’t come out. And even though it’s supposed to release in May of this year, we’re going to give its spot this year to a new movie, because we don’t do repeats at PWxyz. It’s just a rule, plus we needed to make room for all of the YAey adaptations this year, because you can never have too much teens-in-peril with supernatural garnish. So here are the 10 movies from books we hope are at least somewhat sort of partially worth the hype.

This piece from Trendwatching contains some very valuable information about the future of business and how you can stay relevant by staying informed. Here are some of the highlights that caught my attention: Mega-trend of transparency in 2013? **Brands must move from 'having nothing to hide' to pro-actively showing and proving they have nothing to hide. **The perfect storm of consumers' ever-greater lust for NEWISM and niches, the expectation of (instantly!) getting jut the right product, ongoing eco-concerns and the desire for more interesting stories will all combine with the spread of new local manufacturing technologies such as: *3D-printing and make-on-demand, to trigger a resurgence in domestic manufacturing in established markets in 2013 Mobile Moments **in 2013, consumers will look to their mobile devices to maximize absolutely every moment, multi-if-not-hypertasking their experiences, purchases and communications... Eco Trend for 2013 **Rather than being discarded or even recycled (by someone else), these products can be given back to nature to grow something new, with all the eco-status and eco-stories Selected by Jan Gordon covering: "Curation, Social Business and Beyond" Read full article here: [http://bit.ly/Vkmo1j]

This article and infographic was posted by Ted Nguyen for his blog.
Intro:
One of the most pressing questions whether you're new to social media or a social media maven is: What's the best way to post information or share content to optimize your reach Compendium, a content marketing firm conducted a study of more than 200 companies to determine how social media professionals may optimize their engagement with both business-to-business-to-consumer conversations. What they found is consistent with what Ted Nguyen has experienced and he has demonstrated that he clearly knows what he's doing Here are some highlights:
"My experience in sharing more than 21,000 tweets and Facebook posts to my more than 82,000 Twitter followers and Facebook friends is consistent with the study’s findings" . **I recommend the hours between 10 a.m. to 1 p.m. (Pacific Time) or 1 to 4 p.m. (Eastern Time) are the best times for Twitter and Facebook to optimize social engagement engagement.
**I find that tweets shared earlier in the week do better than those sent later in the week. I also have discovered that Facebook posts do best Wednesday early afternoon.
**if you look at Ted's social shares, they run around the clock. he tries his best to engage with people in real time or near real time.

Exerpt:
"Social media is no longer just about Facebook. Social media is splintering and fragmenting as more users find increased activity about their interests and passions residing on other social networks, such as Pinterest, Instagram and Twitter".
Through the rapid rise of smart phones and mobile platforms globally such as tablets led by the surging iPad, the way we use and view media is changing business and marketing.
Maintaining your business marketing momentum on a social web requires constant updates to identify and understand how and why users are using social networks.

Excerpted from article on The Next Web: " ‘Curation’ is such an overused word in the digital content space these days, it has lost almost any real meaning. Digital media startups seek to steer consumers away from automation, and back into the human, hand-picked realm.
With that in mind, Paragraph Shorts is the latest ‘curated’ iPad magazine to hit Apple’s Newsstand, serving up a selection of hand-picked short stories in text, audio and video.
Each week, the guys at Paragraph Shorts select seven stories from the likes of The Paris Review, The New Yorker, The Moth, The Guardian and others, and present them in a beautiful magazine for the public’s consumption.
It’s not all about text either – the selections may also contain videos of short story-readings, or audio alternatives too. Little icons at the bottom-right of main thumbnail indicate what the content is. And when you launch it, you can have a choice of whether to read it, or listen to a narration.
You can easily alter the font, text size and such like via the settings menu at the top-right, and you can favorite articles or share them across the social sphere too..."

Robin Good: Expressedly designed for journalists and newsrooms Spundge is a unique social news discovery, curation and syndication platform that facilitates the discovery, selection and distribution of news content across multiple channels.
Spundge works with topic-specific containers called "notebooks", which you can create and configure to work around any specific topic, event, company or issue you are interested in following.
Spundge taps into YouTube, Twitter, Instagram, Flickr, Soundcloud and Facebook to gather relevant content around your specified topics, as well as into RSS feeds and OPML files that you specify. All these can then be easily filtered (by keyword, time, location, and language) and curated manually before being published inside any topic-specific "notebook".
Notebooks can be made public or private and their contents can be shared on all major social media networks as well as being syndicated outside of Splundge in a number of different ways.
The PRO version of Spundge adds a number of useful features to the free base version, including:
Custom editor - create, write, format and edit your own multimedia posts integrating text, images and video clips with extreme ease.
Personal customized dashboards - these allow you to collect and organize in one page streams from different notebooks, traffic and social sharing data and more.
Syndication - syndicate to major socia platforms such as Twitter and Facebook as well as to Wordpress and Mialchimp.
Collaboration - invite co-editors, curators, newsmasters to complement your work or to fuel a common newsroom activity allowing everyone to track, review, comment and edit individual notebooks.
Embedding - standard embed code to publish/integrate any notebook inside any website or blog page.
Analytics - Acces to detailed traffic data.
Smart attribution - Spundge automatically tracks original sources from where you are picking content, images or video clips and automatically credits them.
Custom sources - plug-in private RSS feeds or your own API to feed unique proprietary content into your notebooks.
Free version available.

Two global education champions, Asia Society’s Tony Jackson and Soliya’s Lucas Welch, have published blog posts this week that go to heart of the mission of our Connect All Schools consortium.

Both posts, however, are also optimistic in how much more capable we are—with new tools, resources, and knowledge—to positively affect these relations.
