Tracks Releases Most Ambitious Update Yet: Custom Camera, New Filters, And Real-Time Video
How timely. After launching a year ago at Disrupt NYC 2011 , Tracks is today releasing one of its biggest updates to date. The service is much like Color, but without the creepy factor as any and all members of a specific photo-sharing group must be invited. I like to think of it as the place where Color and Google+ Circles intersect, but I far prefer Tracks than either of the former. Thus far Tracks has offered iOS , web- and real-world versions of your tracks (the ...

How Kik Survived The Group Messaging Wars And Built A Sweet Mobile App For Controlling TVs
If a consumer mobile fad comes and goes, and you don’t play consolidation musical chairs, what do you do next? This is kind of what happened to Kik, a Canadian startup that took off with the explosive growth of its messaging app last year. Amid the hype around messaging, Kik raised $8 million in funding from RRE Ventures, Spark Capital and Union Square Ventures . Not too long after, Kik’s rivals Beluga and GroupMe got acquired in some respectable (but not crazy huge) deals by Facebook and ...

The Meh-Too Crowd
It’s been a while since I came to Google’s defense but I think it’s time to talk about what an absolute downer it is to dig through a lot of tech commentary these days. The most recent example came after the launch of Google’s Glass project, a HUD for future travelers that will let us connect to our world in a fairly non-obtrusive way. Arguably, the product is pretty pie-in-the-sky, but all things being equal, the potential device, even if it includes a small subset of the ...

Amid the rush of news during HTC's presentation at MWC was a brief mention of a Media Link HD accessory for wireless big-screen mirroring from the One S or One X.

Clik: Google’s Broken App Search Means We’re Invisible On Android
A little more than a week ago, the Clik smartphone app launched , resulting plenty of press coverage and more than 100,000 downloads on iOS (at least according to Clik). But there was one area where the launch fizzled — in the Android Market, where the Clik app is apparently invisible to searches. “Over the weekend, as we get all this hype, nobody could find our app,” says CEO Ted Livingston. Even today, if you search for “clik” in the Market, the app doesn’t show up in ...
