How Nokia's empire collapsed: an illustrative infographic of how mobile market share has changed over the past 30 years.

Apple's dramatic growth from 0.0% in 2007 (the announcement of the first iPhone) to almost 30% in December 2021 is impressive.

Meta's first ad for the Horizon meta-universe looks like a perfect dystopia world.

The New York Times in 2022 is not just a newspaper with a history and a famous brand. It is a rich and wealthy media empire. And the purchase of Wordle is further proof of that.

In recent years, the publication has focused on the purchase of non-core assets. The goal was simple: to diversify the outlet's income as much as possible. And the plan works. Games, audio stories, and a special cooking section, which became the backbone of the NYT's nonnews segment, have grown into a business that now brings the media $22 million per quarter. That's seven times more than it was five years ago.

And yesterday the NYT officially passed the 10 million paid subscriptions mark. Impressive.

Thursday is a brand new dating app. Tinder and the like have driven users into an endless wheel of choice: users look at profiles instead of chatting or dating. And, of course, they pay money for it.

Thursday only works on Thursdays. That means people only have 24 hours to text and arrange a date. At exactly midnight on Friday, the correspondence turns into a pumpkin.

For now, Thursday works only in London and New York. But the app already has more than 110,000 installations - not bad for two cities.

18 years ago, Mark Zuckerberg launched TheFacebook from his dorm room, revolutionizing online communication forever.

Today, it's Meta. And the company isn't having the best of times: a record drop in stock, an exodus of users, and a crisis of ideas. Zuckerberg's only hope is the meta universe.

Zuckerberg's empire is in trouble: Meta stock is down 25%, or about $200 billion, all as Facebook reported its first-ever decline in unique users.

Zuckerberg himself lost $27 billion and dropped out of the top ten richest people in the world. Bloomberg writes that this is one of the biggest capital declines in just one day.

In Warsaw, pretty creative Dying Light 2 ads appeared.

- An artist drew a huge banner on the wall of a building in the center;
- during the day it shows the main character, it's nothing special;
- but at night a zombie appears next to him.

It's interesting that this reflects one of the game's mechanics: zombies become more active at night.

It took eight years for the designers of Google Chrome to announce a grand change to the logo today.

They took away the shadows, and now may rest for another eight years.

There was harassment again. And again, in the meta-universe.

Nina Jane Patel, a mother of three, logged into the game Horizon Venues. In just a minute she was surrounded by three realistic male avatars and began to rub up against her, making obscene gestures and appropriate hints. And they touched her avatar.

It was too realistic for a woman - now she suffers from anxiety and worries about the safety of women on the Internet.

Actually, Horizon Venues was supposed to have a "security bubble," but it didn't work.

Boston Dynamics' Spot robots are superstars in the world of high-tech. And what are stars without advertising contracts?

Bridgestone tire commercials:

Pretty original anti-smoking public service announcement.

The BBC has prepared and rolled out an incredibly beautiful promo for the Olympics in Beijing. You won't believe but the reel features almost no graphics and the scenes are made on locations created by 3D-printing.
