MM171: Blackberry Playbook, Twitter Promoted Accts, PropUp Winners
0I’ve had to take a week off from the Moxie Mo Show, but I’m glad to say I’m back with the hottest tech news of the week! Also, we have our winners of the PropUp iPad Stand Giveaway, so make sure you watch the end to see if you won!
The biggest tech story of the day belongs to RIM’s Blackberry Playbook tablet. As we speculated in Moxie Mo Show #163, we’re pleased to show you RIM’s new Blackberry Tablet and surprisingly, it’s better than we had thought - we’ll show you why this could be a game changer for RIM/Blackberry and if it will actually hold its weight to the iPad. There’s definitely one draw-back with the Blackberry Playbook, but you’ll be amazed at the rest of the power it holds.
Also, Twitter is back in the news – after a huge redesign that we covered in Moxie Mo Show #169, Twitter is now allowing you the chance to gain more followers… by paying for them. Their new feature, Promoted Accounts, will allow your profile to be seen by millions of people – but guess how much it will cost? We show you exactly what Twitter is trying to do by allowing businesses and brands to gain more followers while also putting dollars in Twitter’s pockets.
Last but not least, some housekeeping issues: we have our two winners of our PropUp Stand for the iPad – the most comfortable and useful iPad stand I’ve had the chance to review. If you didn’t win, it’s NOT TOO LATE to buy the PropUp at an unbelievable low price by clicking here at the PropUp Store! Hurry – October 1st is when they begin to ship! And, finally – after covering one of the moxiest gadgets of the year, the Dyson Air Multiplier back in July, I am happy to report I have this blade-less fan in my hands – it’s finally mine to keep and it’s worth it! It’s the moxiest and coolest fan I have ever seen for your home or office!
