Give this Social Commerce Biz a Try

Wow, Facebook really knows how to give someone a send-off!

Wow, Facebook really knows how to give someone a send-off!

So much for that touching goodbye post to Sheryl Sandberg that Mark Zuckerberg posted just 9 days ago, when after a 14-year run at Facebook — now Meta Platforms — Sandberg said she was resigning from her post as COO. At the time, Zuckerberg called Sandberg’s planned departure the “the end of an era” and spoke glowingly of her as an “amazing person, leader, partner, and friend.” Today, the Wall Street Journal reports — for the second time since Sandberg resigned — that Facebook has… Source link

Why you should give Google Analytics 4 a chance

Why you should give Google Analytics 4 a chance

And, as many readers would rightly suggest, it’s still missing features. [Disclosure: I used to work for Google and helped build the foundations of Google Analytics 4] All that being said, I’m here to offer an unpopular opinion: GA4 is actually a great tool. Not only that, it’s a lot more… Source link

On Tuesday night, the Detroit Tigers handed the Minnesota Twins a walk-off win in the ugliest and most spectacular way possible: a thoroughly botched play. Let’s set the stage.

Google won’t give old Pixels the best 5G, even though it admits it could

Google says it doesn’t plan to update the software for the Pixel 4a 5G, 5, or 5a to support C-band 5G in the US, despite also saying that the phones have the necessary hardware and that the functionality will work in other countries. Google hasn’t explained this decision, which it announced in a post on the Pixel support forums (h/t to Android Police for spotting that post). Google has updated its latest Pixels in the US, the 6 and 6 Pro, with C-band via a software update, but not… Source link
