Ingress: A Great Game For The Knowledge Worker

Ingress is a great game for The Knowledge Worker. You sit in front of your computer all day. Ingress makes you walk/run/bike. Ingress makes you explore your city. Ingress makes you meet people. And it is a pretty secular gathering. You meet people from all sorts of backgrounds. The game is a great ice breaker. You start with already having something in common. And since the game is global you could be travelling and you would already have Ingress players to connect with no matter where you go.

Mashable's Infinite Real Estate

Mashable is a unique tech success story. It is a media brand name, true, but it is essentially a tech startup gone large. I was just thinking Mashable's unique three different size columns, ample use of white background, and infinite scrolling seems to make for infinite real estate. You show up to read one article and you end up reading many headlines and few more articles. It is very well designed. Mashable has made better use of real estate than Facebook itself.

Snapchat's Year

Last year it was Highlight's year to shine at SXSW. This year I think that honor goes to Snapchat.

Twitter had its year. It was Twitter that put SXSW on the tech map. One year FourSquare stole the show.

Next year I think we will see a new paradigm emerge. That new paradigm is the NUI, the Natural User Interface. It will be like moving from 2D to 3D. All apps will need to be overhauled. New possibilities will emerge.
