We hear so much about social media –– who’s remixing who, who comments what, and which latest app is trying to challenge the big players in the online world. With more features, plugins, and additions to your usual networks, there are some times when new apps emerge to challenge that status quo: what if you could connect with your loved ones in a new way? These “anti-establishment” applications are a gamble – they could either rise to the top or (belly) flop to the bottom.
This past week, I explored these “alternative” or lesser-known social networks to see what potential they had, if any, and whether they may be the next big thing within the coming year. So, ICYMI, here is a round-up of the most underrated social media apps – all Metter Media Intern approved.
Innovation is in the air, and brands and platforms alike are striving to make themselves bigger, better, and more widely used. Whether that be tweeting about the Game of Thrones premiere, introducing new features, or battling the competition, this week has been full of innovative moves by big players.
More than ever, social media channels are listening to the preferences and concerns of their users, and the result is a constant evolution of the apps and sites we love. This week, Twitter launched its homegrown alternative to Storify, and added promoted tweets to user profiles. Facebook targeted THOSE people on your newsfeed with a new service for parents, and Yik Yak founders discussed staying true to their niche following. Lastly, Snapchat execs addressed the concerns about privacy, bugs, and transparency in an exclusive and rare interview. Ch-ch-ch-changes!
