What’s the difference? Essentially the business service lets a company control who can access the company credit card for payments. As an admin on […]
Apple’s CEO Tim Cook provides the voice to a new video from Apple that comes with the simple title “Better”. The video talks about Apple’s environmental credentials and how they’re working on improving them, but it’s also pretty clear that Apple’s “better” refers to its products as well.

While I was initially quite sceptical of the service, as I was very happy with Spotify, I’ve grown to really like it over the last few months.

While the announced acquisition price for WhatsApp is significant (ok, let’s just say “huge”), how does it compare to other tech industry acquisitions? Here’s a nice chart from Statista that puts it in context
We’ve said in the past and I suspect we’ll have to say it again in the future .. If you don’t pay for a service then you are part of the product .. though treating your users badly probably isn’t the best idea .. LogMeIn sent out an email to their free tier users earlier […]
Uber has finally launched in Dublin. At the moment the company is still testing, so the number of cars and drivers available is limited. Unlike Hailo, which we’ve mentioned in the past, Uber is more upmarket and is aimed more at business users who want a luxury ride (though the company has introduced lower cost […]
