Ten micronetwork sites and apps to ensure you're actually socializing with those in your social networks.
Laurens ten Hagen's insight:
You're sick of all the mainstream social networks. The constant baby pictures, your oh-so-in-love couple friends, your creepy co-worker who Likes every single one of your photos. If you want to trim down your social networking, or if you would rather not friend your Aunt Josephine or your boss on Twitter and Facebook, consider switching to a more private network. These 10 private social networks ensure you always have a space to share photos, collaborate on a group project for work or school, or organize a carpool to this week's neighborhood softball game. Which of these do you already use? Delete the scoop?

Is Social Media Anxiety Disorder, known as SMAD, the newest affliction resulting from our love affair with Instagram, Twitter, Facebook and other social media sites? Researchers...
Laurens ten Hagen's insight:
Sure, you could quit using your social sites altogether — but then you’d be, well, bored and lonely. Science may someday shed more light on social media stress, but in the meantime, we've gathered the most common problems associated with popular social networks so that you know what to watch out for. 3 tips: Step back and consider which sites are most satisfying. You don't have to use them all. For instance, if you like posting to Instagram, your photos will automatically post to Facebook, which means you can continue on Facebook without feeling anxious about your friends' photos or activities. If you're anxious about your posts being unfavorably compared to others’, consider limiting your viewers to a close circle of friends on Google+ or Facebook. On Pinterest, you can make private boards to keep the photos to yourself or a few friends. On Instagram, you can set your account to private, which means you must approve followers. Feel free to lurk. While lurking sounds somewhat creepy, it doesn't have to be. A lurker is just a name for an Internet observer. You can read all the tweets on Twitter you'd like, as well as any of the thousands of topics on Reddit, without posting yourself. Everyone feels insecure at times. Take the advice of a socially savvy teen, "You're comparing your worst with everybody else's best."

Between the endless Euro drama and the Bitcoin brouhaha, currency has been much in the news of late. Most people would probably name the US Dollar as the dominant currency in this day and age.
Laurens ten Hagen's insight:
Five Reasons Content Is the New Currency: Content has meaning beyond the data it contains. It can be shared and exchanged with others to acquire additional knowledge—much like a traditional currency.Financial transactions used to buy status. Now, content buys earned trust.In the sharing economy, bonds are formed through content and utilitarian exchange.Content creates equity much like stocks and bonds. The more subject matter expertise a brand brings to the table, the more business they can create. This expertise is displayed in the form of content.The definition of the term currency is anything that is used as a medium of exchange. Content acts as that catalyst because it brokers an exchange between people with similar interests and goals.Delete the scoop?

Ignoring social media because you think you can't prove results? Here's what you risk.
Laurens ten Hagen's insight:
Social media ROI has always been a touchy subject. You'll find divided camps: those who emphasize that social media should not be expected to perform like a direct response tactic and those who can provide all kinds ofempirical formulas for calculating social media ROI. But one move will have more measurable impact on your bottom line than the number of Likes, mentions or +1s will ever have: ignoring. #FlowConnection

Laurens ten Hagen's insight:
Platformen als Twitter en Facebookhebben de marketing, sales en de community op een revolutionaire wijze veranderd. Maar op de werkvloer zelf is er ook erg veel veranderd. Meer dan de helft van de bedrijven staat het hun medewerkers toe om toegang te hebben tot sociale netwerksites op het werk, maar toch is er nog een kwart van de bedrijven die toegang tot sociale netwerksites actief blokkeert.

In a statement to TechCrunch this week, Dotcom confirmed that he had ordered the staff his file-hosting website Mega to take down any files uploaded for building "The Liberator," the world's first 3D-printed gun. “I think it’s a serious threat to the security of the community," said Dotcom, according to a statement emailed to TechCrunch by a spokesman. "I think it’s scary that people can print 3D guns that can’t even be detected by metal detectors. This should concern everybody." Delete the scoop?

Google just unveiled a tweak to is Gmail iPhone app that gives it more control over the iPhone. Links opened in Gmail now send you directly to Google's web browser, Chrome, assuming you've installed Chrome. Map links directly open in Google Maps, also assuming you've installed Google Maps.
Laurens ten Hagen's insight:
Apple doesn't let a user pick "default" applications in the iPhone. Therefore, all links in Apple's email send the user to Apple's browser, Safari, even if the user prefers Chrome. With this hack, Google is creating its own alternative to "default." By creating a network within Gmail that links Google's other apps, it's allowing users to bypass Apple's native applications entirely. Over time, Google could either acquire, or build more applications, linking them together, thus totally taking over the iPhone. Oh, and if you don't like Chrome, you can turn it off, going with Safari.

Vanaf zaterdag 27 april is de Samsung Galaxy S4 in twee kleuren in Nederland verkrijgbaar. De eerste maand krijgen de eerste kopers er een gratis geheugenkaart van 64 GB bij. Dat maakte Samsung dinsdag bekend.
Laurens ten Hagen's insight:
Samsung kondigde de Galaxy S4 vorige maand aan in New York. Meest opvallende aan het nieuwe paradepaardje is de uitrusting met een 4,99 inch Full HD Super AMOLED-scherm en een 1,9 Ghz quad-core processor. Het toestel zit verder vol met een aantal nieuwe sensoren, onder meer om de temperatuur, vochtigheid en lichtintensiteit te meten. Samsung heeft verschillende nieuwe apps voor het toestel ontwikkeld, zoals bijvoorbeeld S Health, die met deze sensoren samenwerken. Ook nieuw is Smart Pause, een functie die een filmpje automatisch pauzeert wanner er van het scherm wordt weggekeken. Delete the scoop?
