Bitly API Documentation. Social media / What do you think of So.cl? How I Use StumbleUpon for Brand Discovery. At Media consultants are avid fans of StumbleUpon as a brand discovery and creative marketing brainstorming tool to use with our clients. Here’s how that plays out: 1. Brand Discovery – When we meet with a client, we conduct two in-depth interviews with questionnaires that guide the thought process on the client’s brand: market, industry, slogans, positioning, etc. Then we get to work doing market research for information and visuals on the market place, industry, peers and competition.
This is where StumbleUpon is incredibly handy – we spend hours Stumbling the client’s industry/topic, finding things that we would have never found with even in-depth Google web and image searches. It’s incredibly effective with newer industries like blogs, commerce and content providers, and other types of newer web market trends. 2. 3. How At Media Used StumbleUpon: PinView Turns Your Facebook Timeline Into a Pinterest Board. Ever wished that long, scrolling Facebook Timeline was somehow easier to manage — like, say, a Pinterest board? Brand new Facebook app PinView displays items from your News Feed, Timeline, friends list and multimedia pages as small panels, just like social bookmarking site Pinterest showcases images on Pinboards.
The spiffy app launched Thursday with the mantra, "Browse Facebook like you browse Pinterest. " Once you download the app, PinView opens up your News Feed in grid format. Buttons on the top right allow you to just view stuff from your Timeline, friends' profile photos, photos or videos. PinView's developers have ambitious goals for how to improve the app with new features — such as the option to save favorite posts. SEE ALSO: Turn Your Facebook Timeline Into a Movie PinView resembles Friendsheet, a similar app that rolled out in January. Sites across the web have used the grid-format display in the past, but Pinterest has found major success presenting the design to the masses. Typecache a repository of type | TYPECACHE.COM.
WordPress Themes. An Open Invitation: How One Startup Is Looking to Change Angel Investing. By Trevor Gilbert On May 31, 2012 So you want to invest in startups, but you either don’t have enough capital lying around, or you don’t want to allocate all of your capital to one startup. After all, you’re wealthy, but you’re not wealthy enough that you won’t notice that the money is gone. MicroVentures is hoping to become the solution to your problem. MicroVentures is an investment firm that crowdfunds startups with capital from a large pool of angel investors, billing itself as the connector for angel investors and startups. The firm finds startups that are raising a round of funding, and begins thinking about investing. It performs the due diligence on the deal by looking at company finances, the burn rate, background checks, and other factors. MicroVentures then posts the deal on its site for investors to see and learn about. As investors send money to MicroVentures for the deal, the firm holds it in escrow while the deal closes.
Facebook Opens at $42, Valued at $116.6 Billion. Mark Zuckerberg Worth $21 Billion on Facebook IPO Debut. In less than an hour, Mark Zuckerberg has jumped from number 29 to number 24 — and then back to 29 — on the list of wealthiest people in the world. Facebook set an opening share price of $38 on Thursday evening, which valued Zuckerberg's 503.6 million shares and options at about $19.1 billion. Trading opened on Friday at about $42. That price would make Zuckerberg's portion of the company worth $21.2 billion. The 28-year-old CEO would be not only more wealthy than Google founders Sergey Brin and Larry Page, but also creeping into the territory of Amazon CEO Jeff Bezos, who holds the number 23 spot.
Shares dipped back to $38 almost immediately after the stock opened and will likely fluctuate — along with Zuckerberg's net worth — throughout the day. The Wall Street Journal has set up a real-time "Wealth-o-Meter" for those interested in following along. Zuckerberg had planned to sell 30.2 million of his shares in the IPO, which would net him $1.3 billion at Friday's opening trading price. Check Out Mark Zuckerberg's Epic Facebook IPO Status Update.

FaceBOARD / Facebook listed on Nasdaq. Mark Zuckerberg will ring NASDAQ opening bell this morning, on Facebook's IPO day. To commemorate the momentous day on which Facebook finally starts public trading, Mark Zuckerberg has been invited by NASDAQ to ring the stock exchange's opening bell. He won't actually be in the New York City stock market in person, instead he'll carry out the ceremonial duty remotely from Facebook's Menlo Park headquarters.
That seems like a rather fitting way to perform the act for a company built upon the value of sharing and connecting over the internet. NASDAQ trading begins at 9.30AM Eastern Time this morning, same time as every other day, which is when we'll see how Facebook's ambitiously priced IPO — a $38 per share valuation takes the total price for the company slightly above $100 billion — is greeted by professional investors. You can catch a livestream of proceedings over on NASDAQ.com from 9.28AM.

Rakuten looks forward to introducing Pinterest to the Japanese market as well as other markets around the world.” Pinterest is raising $120 million in a funding round expected to be announced Thursday or Friday morning, according to multiple sources.
