Beyond Devices Podcast

Our News Roundup this week covers the Samsung Note7 reviews that came out this week; Google's launch of its Duo video calling app for Android and iOS; and Apple's announcement of an R&D center in China. Our Question of the Week is "Why does Twitter seem stuck, and how can it unstick itself?" Jan answers questions about what makes Twitter seem stuck, from its user growth to monetization in the US to its product; why Twitter seems to be executing so slowly on its strategic priorities; and what Twitter can and should do to fix itself and get past its current stagnation. Our third segment is a bit of a departure from our usual pattern, in that it's just us talking about the technology – hardware, software, and services – that we use in our daily work and personal lives. Lastly, we wrap up with a Weekly Pick, which is a book recommendation from Aaron. As usual, you can find relevant links and other ways to listen to the podcast on the website at podcast.beyonddevic.es.
