The changes that did for BlackBerry

September 29, 2013 by Neville Hobson 

Summarizing the tale of the rise and fall of mobile device and services maker BlackBerry as "changing too little and changing far too late" is probably as good as any way of succinctly capturing the sense of the huge fall from grace of Canada's biggest technology company, originally known as Research in Motion or RIM. And a huge fall it is, from almost owning the mobile devices market a few years ago to becoming a bit player in the past year or so as the company's leadership tried in vain to … [Read more...] about The changes that did for BlackBerry

One of the characteristics of any conversation about Google+ is a view that not many people actually use it - mostly the "users" versus "active users" argument - and how it will fail as it's not like Facebook or Twitter as a social network. Speaking as an "active user" since Google field trialled Google+ in mid 2011, I'd agree with that latter point - it isn't like Facebook or Twitter.
