The rise of mobile and streaming video technology has given audiences several new ways to consume content, including binge-watching Netflix series. However, the majority of the shows, including those specifically made for online platforms, like “House of Cards” and “Orange Is The New Black”, still rely on the same narrative devices like the ones produced for traditional television. Hooked Digital Media, a studio based in Santa Monica, California, is trying to change this tendency through the creation of films and shows that can be watched on mobile devices.

In the last few years, many larger companies have enacted restrictive policies regarding the access to Facebook and social media in the workplace, and many employees across the United States have been penalized, if not even fired for breaking the rules. However, it appears that the Silicon Valley Company is now secretly working on a new website called “Facebook@Work” with the purpose of getting a foothold in the office. In fact, Facebook is developing a new product designed specifically for use in the workplace, which will allow users to chat with colleagues, connect with professional contacts and collaborate over documents, competing with Google Drive (Google+) and Microsoft Office (Yammer [Office 365]). The project, which was reported on November 16th by The Financial Times, is currently in a testing phase, and it is expected to be introduced within the coming months.

The new site will look very much like Facebook but it will allow users to keep their personal profile along with their holiday photos, political outbursts, and silly videos separate from their work identity. Currently, Facebook@Work is led by a team based in Facebook’s London offices. The effort, however, is not new, Facebook began working on the project years ago.

Many of us carry a notebook or notepad around to take notes for business, school, or personal projects. Unfortunately, sometimes finding, and deciphering the information you need might become complicated, mostly when you are trying to share your notes with others. OneNote however may help to make the task less challenging.

Yammer is essentially a social network that is entirely focused on your business. More specifically, Yammer is a private social network that helps you and your company share information across teams, and organize around projects so you can go further, and much faster. Thanks to its collaboration software, which is completely cloud-based, and its business applications, Yammer allows you to always be connected to coworkers, retrieve precious information, and take part in conversations. Yammer gives everyone a voice, letting you seize opportunities to go beyond your job description and share ideas so that you and your company can move forward, and keep up with whatever comes next.
