Samsung Makes Much More Money On Mobile Than Google Makes Overall
Pretty insane chart from Horace Dediu at Asymco. He compares Samsung's mobile operating income to Google's overall operating income.

As you can see, Samsung's mobile operating income will soon be twice as much as Google's overall operating income. Samsung's operating income is almost entirely because of Google's Android.

Facebook Is Close To Buying Israeli Startup Waze For $1 Billion

Facebook Is Close To Buying Israeli Startup Waze For $1 Billion | cross pond high tech | Scoop.it
From www.businessinsider.com - May 9, 1:44 PM

Waze and Facebook partnered in October 2012 when Waze released its updated version that allows users to share their drive with their Facebook friends.


This would be Facebook's third acquisition in Israel. It bought Snaptu in 2011 for $70 million and Face.com in 2012 for $60 million.


In the last year, Waze tripled its user base to 45 million and in March alone, 1.5 million users downloaded the free mobile navigation app, Calcalist said.

Philippe J DEWOST's insight:

the deal would clearly not be for the userbase per se, so it has to be about engagement or part of a bigger plan. I just hope this won't change Waze's service too much as I find it amazing.
