Here's Why Google and Facebook Might Completely Disappear in the Next 5 Years

Social companies born since 2010 have a very different view of the world. These companies – and Instagram is the most topical example at the moment – view the mobile smartphone as the primary (and oftentimes exclusive) platform for their application. They don’t even think of launching via a web site. They assume, over time, people will use their mobile applications almost entirely instead of websites.
We will never have Web 3.0, because the Web’s dead.
Smile And The World Smiles With You

This approach to connecting with women might very well be coined “Smile Marketing.” Humor that is story-driven, versus joke-driven, is a powerful tool in connecting with busy women. Anything that causes a mouth to form a smile at any point throughout the day is a good thing. It also creates a memorable moment.

If You Cite Compete Or Alexa For Anything Besides Making Fun Of Them, You’re A Moron

Dear Internet, I thought we’ve been over this? If you cite Compete or Alexa for anything other than making fun of them, you’re officially a moron. How bad is their data? Well, in the case of Compete, if you reversed their chart, then it would be much closer to being correct than it currently is. I seriously wonder if they’re tracking anti-visits or some new metaphysical stat I’m not aware of?
