There's definitely a big trend towards mobile-browsing now, and people feeling more secure about paying through their tablets or phones.

You're right. I think 2013 will be a big year for mobile web. - And a slick responsive solution may be the answer, but also Apps are taking more and more market share. - A company's got to have a good digital strategy to compete these days.

Great wisdom from Coke.
Although, they do have the revenue to employ a PR team to respond to all 15,000 daily tweets. - Your average SME or start-up barely checks their Twitter on a weekly basis.

But, if they saw the value of it as a customer interaction tool, maybe they would use it more often.

I think the valuation is based on potential advertising reach, but Facebook have yet to monetize their mobile assets - and are really struggling to figure it out.

So, unless they create a better mobile strategy, it wouldn't surprise me if share value and company valuation take a dip.

There is a lot of competition from web directories now - Many with more modern interfaces than Yell's online presence.

Just because they're a household name, doesn't make them safe.. but blimey. You're right. How can they get away with that much debt?

It seems Fair Data are using the badge as a way of advertising their services on corporate websites. - It's a staggeringly expensive way to promote customer loyalty and trust, especially for SME's and start-ups who can't compete with the likes of KlaxoSmithKline.

I think an annual review would be a great idea.
With the current climate, a lot of businesses are down-scaling and re-locating to smaller offices - so you're right, the registry needs closer attention.

I think it's a bit late for Intel to be entering the market, especially when players like Microsoft have been struggling to make waves against the likes of Microsoft and Samsung..

I would have thought Intel would be looking to seek hardware deals with a more established manufacturer.

I wonder if, with Warren Buffet's incredible portfolio and financial backing, the Heinz brand will change or just continue on the track they're on.

Time will tell, I guess!
I can't see it being a bad thing for Heinz, however.

I hadn't personally heard of Axminster, but it's sad to see more UK-based business going into administration.

It's more of a reason to rally the growth of start-ups and SMEs in your local region, though, as they'll be the future for our economy.

Yes, this post confused me to begin with..
As martin says, TweetDeck was purchased by Twitter and should be fine from a legal perspective because it's just reacting/responding to their own API feed.

I think it may be the original software house that created the code before the Twitter buyout.
