Tango CTO: “Alibaba investment gave us wings”

图片
In May 2014, Alibaba led messaging app Tango’s  $280M financing round , during a period when the mobile messaging space saw giant movements with acquisitions from Facebook ( Whatsapp ) and Rakuten ( Viber ) also hitting the headlines. It’s apparent that Alibaba didn’t want to miss out. It has been trying hard to push its own  Laiwang  app, but has had little success. Chairman and founder Jack Ma has even deserted Tencent’s Wechat  to get people to notice his own messaging app, but it hasn’t helped much. That’s good for Tango, because had Laiwang been a success in China, the Tango deal might not have happened. Having explored Tango recently, I understand better why the deal makes sense for  Alibaba . Tango is a lot more than just a messaging app. Within the app, users are just a tap away from music, news, and games.

SwiftKey puts its themes packs on sale (50% off) for Black Friday

Popular keyboard replacement app SwiftKey is gearing up for the shopping season with a sweet deal on its themes packs. The 5-theme packs are now available for $1.49 (down from $2.99), while the 10-theme Premier pack is available for $2.49. All of these packs are available in SwiftKey’s online store: Premier pack  (10 themes) Pink pack Minimal pack Hot punch Cool punch Accent pack Material Design pack Individual themes remain at their normal $0.99 price tag, but for just fifty cent extra there’s little reason not to opt for a pack of five. I personally prefer the  recently launched Material pack , including light, dark, and three other Duarte-inspired themes, but some of the other options are just as nice. The deal is open to users from around the world, for “a limited time,” though it looks likely that it will go on at least until next Monday. To buy themes or theme packs, visit the SwiftKey store from the SwiftKey app’s settings menu.

Google services not working right for many folks

图片
Various Google services have been reportedly acting up for a number of folks for at least the last hour or so, and longer for others. So if you are having issues with Google right now, you aren’t alone. While Google’s  status site  only shows Gmail as experiencing issues, many are finding that the majority of Google’s services are either not working or are extremely slow, including Search, Drive, Maps and even Youtube. Considering this issue has been going on for at least part of the afternoon, it’s pretty likely this will be resolved quickly. It is also worth noting that not everyone is running into issues, so the service outages seem to be hit and miss, depending on the region and so forth. Are you having any issues with Google services, if so, which ones? Were you experiencing problems but no longer? Let us know in the comments.
