Social media
Five interesting takes on social media that can be boiled down to put your heart into your communication and content creation. The more engagement you put in the more in return you’ll get.
Tool
ThinkUp is a social media analytics tool that attempts to give you meaningful information about how your social media accounts are performing, rather than just measuring arbitrary ‘ranks’ or follower counts, it analyses a number of metrics to give you useful data on ways to improve your social media skills.
Startups
Boatbound is following the same trend as many other startups that thinks in a circular economy perspective. Do we all need a boat each? No, since we probably won’t use it all the time.
