Interview - Un jeune Belge se distingue dans la Silicon Valley - Datanews.be

http://datanews.levif.be/ict/centre-de-connaissance/jeunes-entreprises/interview-un-jeune-belge-se-distingue-dans-la-silicon-valley/article-4000029533667.htm Créer le plus grand réseau d’informations au monde. Telle est l’ambition de Xavier Damman. Ce jeune entrepreneur entend jouer dans la cour des grands, et avec succès semble-t-il. Al Jazeera, The New York Times, voire la Maison Blanche notamment utilisent déjà Storify, l’outil en ligne avec lequel il est possible de fondre les messages Facebook et Twitter dans une forme narrative claire. “La chance ne vous tombe pas dessus comme cela, il faut la forcer."

Whirlwind: Why Storify For iPad Is Underhyped

http://ckanal.tumblr.com/post/18080509259/why-storify-for-ipad-is-underhyped Storify has done this , and it’s unleashed the power of the social Web to be characters, quotes and turning points in those stories. Anyone who can search, drag-and-drop and enter some text is on their way. The elements are all there. The incredible part is that the media industry hasn’t already created an app like this, and that it was beaten to the punch by an innovative startup, co-founded by Associated Press veteran Burt Herman . The crowd - our audience - is here to stay, and empowering them to be part of the storytelling process is not a bad thing.
In many ways, 2011 was the year of the pivot. One startup that successfully switched gears was Fab, which started the year as a gay social network and ended it a design-oriented e-commerce site. Founder Jason Goldberg created the Fab Timeline slideshow below to illustrate all the changes the company has gone through, from its pivot in February to raising $8 million in July, another $40 million in early December, and growing all along the way.
