❗️ Things Xerox invented:

- Laser Printers
- Graphical UI (User Interface) with Mouse
- Graphical Text Editor
- Ethernet

But corporate didn't see the point so it passed on commercialising any of those inventions.

So now it's part of Fuji, a printing company!

Goodbye January! Hello 2018!

📻 @iXRadio

​​WhatsApp is now Facebook’s second-biggest property, followed by Facebook Messenger & Instagram!

#Facebook & #WhatsApp boasted record usership — 2.13 billion & 1.5 billion MAUs (monthly active users), respectively — according to Facebook’s Q4 earnings. That’s despite a small decline in the number of users in 🇺🇸 & 🇨🇦

WhatsApp is now bigger than #FacebookMessenger, its rival/sibling messaging app. It’s also far bigger than #Instagram. Facebook’s namesake app, of course, remains, on top.

#Facebook is the top social network in 152 out of 167 countries (91% of the planet), challenged only by #VK (VKontakte) and #Odnoklassniki in Russian🇷🇺 territories, and #QZone in China🇨🇳

And in Iran🇮🇷, following the state censorship towards Facebook, there’s a chance for #Instagram.

​​👻 vs 📸

#Snapchat lags significantly in user numbers: in December 2017, it reported 50 million monthly users, compared to 65 million for #Instagram.

However, the amount of time that users spend in each app gives a distinct advantage to Snapchat: its users spent nearly 4.5 hours/month using the Snapchat app, compared to 3.5 hours/month among Instagram users.

And living up to its reputation as a Millennial honeypot, Snapchat’s user base skews young:
A third of its user base is aged 18-24 & nearly two thirds (64%) of its user base is below the age of 35.
In comparison, only 18% of Instagram’s user base is between the ages of 18-24, while more than a third of its user base is over the age of 45.
