‘Your Twitter Archive’ rolling out, lets you download every tweet you’ve ever written

Twitter is finally rolling out a way for users to access their old tweets. The social network had previously promised the feature would be available by the end of the year, and some users are reporting that a new ‘Your Twitter Archive’ option is now available at the end of the on-site settings menu.

You don’t get to choose how anyone else interacts or identifies with media, even when it’s media you care about. Even when it’s media you made.

You don’t get to choose what constitutes a “real” fan.

You don’t get to harass and name-call because people don’t interact…

Trackable suitcase automatically follows its owner

Holidays are supposed to be relaxing, but with all of the organization involved they can quickly become more hassle than they’re worth. We’ve already seen Ogomo save stressed travelers from worrying about the little things by delivering travel-size toiletries to the hotel, and now the Bluetooth-enabled hop! robotic suitcase from Ideactionary could make lost luggage a thing of the past.

Amazon phone confirmed, could be announced tomorrow

Amazon’s updated Kindle Fire and new backlit “Paperwhite” Kindle e-reader have already leaked out ahead of the company’s event tomorrow, but there may be one more surprise in store: a mobile phone. Multiple sources have confirmed to The Verge that Amazon is working on a smartphone that runs a variant of the Kindle Fire’s Android-based operating system, and we’re now hearing that the device will be shown to the press tomorrow.

A phone huh? I would have been more excited about this if the Kindle Fire’s software hadn’t been so… flimsy. But maybe Amazon will nail it this time around. It will in any way be very interesting to learn about what kind of business model Amazon will go for with the alleged Kindle Phone. AT&T is Amazon’s data provider for the 3G Kindles, so maybe they’ll pair up on the phone as well? Or can Amazon find a way to break lose from the tight grip operators have on the smartphone business?

Here are a few interesting facts from the research: Smartphone users spend more time on mobile apps than on mobile sites 1 out of every 5 people research products on mobile devices while watching TV Men are set to outspend women on mobile devices Digital content is still the leading product purchased via mobile device Mobile shoppers make the majority of their purchases on the weekends 53% of mobile consumers use their device to “showroom” products (via Will mCommerce Overtake eCommerce?)

The art and skill of leadership is often times under appreciation. Business sense and product greatness is one thing, leading the troops within the team to really stick together and growing both as personal and company is a whole other thing. 

Many of us who are in this industry forgetting the fact that leadership is as important ingredient as technology. At the end of the day, it’s all about people, great people. And leading bunch of smart and passionate people is not something that we should undermine. A lot times, companies suffer because their lack of ability in nurturing, inspiring, and grooming their great people to stay. Technology comes and go, trends always change, but people with great talent and passion don’t come everyday.
