Editor's Notes
- Cloud – not on your local computer
- The small amounts of light from these devices pass through the retina into a part of the hypothalamus (the area of the brain that controls several sleep activities) and delay the release of the sleep-inducing hormone, melatonin.
- Browsers Google to launch kid-friendly versions of Chrome, YouTube, others in 2015 Children under the age of 12 are the target group, despite regulatory worries. Google Google is currently working on versions of products like Chrome and YouTube tailored specifically for kids under the age of 13, according to a report from USA Today. Pavni Diwanji, a VP of engineering at Google, says that the new products are due at some point next year and that they are intended to help children "be more than just pure consumers of tech, but creators, too." It's not clear how these under-13 products will work, but they may change the way they look or the kinds of data they present. In the most specific example, Diwanji recounted a story about her daughter typing "trains" into Google Search hoping for results about Thomas the Tank Engine, but getting an Amtrak schedule instead. In the US, one of the biggest considerations when designing online products and services for kids is the Children's Online Privacy Protection Act, or COPPA. It dictates how information can be collected from and presented to kids under the age of 13—changes to the law effective in July of 2013 include multiple stipulations related to privacy policies, parental oversight, and security requirements for data collected from young children. Since the vast majority of Google's revenue comes from advertising and the value of the company's ads is tied to its trove of user data, COPPA compliance will obviously be important to users and Google alike (Yelp was fined $450,000 earlier this year for COPPA violations). Google isn't the first company to try and make its products more kid-friendly. Apple introduced a new kind of Apple ID alongside iOS 8 and OS X Yosemite's Family Sharing feature in the fall, a type of account that allows kids to buy and download apps but only with explicit oversight by and permission from a parent. Child-specific accounts and products like these could actually be helpful for parents who want to protect their kids' privacy. "We want to be thoughtful about what we do, giving parents the right tools to oversee their kids' use of our products," said Diwanji. http://windows.microsoft.com/en-gb/windows/set-up-family-safety#set-up-family-safety=windows-8
- WhatsApp Free (initially) iOS, Android, Windows, Nokia, Blackberry People professed surprise when Facebook bought WhatsApp in a $19bn deal last February. They shouldn’t have: WhatsApp was already boasting 450 million MAUs (monthly active users), and is currently on 600 million. Its interface is clean and simple, and it allows photo, video and audio media, as well as group chat. Nifty features include the option to back up chat to iCloud and automatically save in-message media. It’s best for chatting with friends, because all of them will have it. Facebook Messenger app logo.png Facebook Messenger Free iOS, Android, Windows, Blackberry Continuing its apparent aim to splinter all of its web services into individual apps, Facebook made Messenger the only way of chatting via Facebook on smartphones and tablets last August. Over 500 million people downloaded it, because they basically didn’t have a choice, so it goes without saying that there’s a large user base. It has an array of stickers , if you’re into that kind of thing, and offers picture and voice messaging as well as free Wi-Fi calls. Privacy-wise though, Facebook doesn’t have the best record (remember, it now owns WhatsApp). slack app logo.png Slack Free, then tiered pricing iOS, Android, Mac desktop Slack has become very popular among younger, hipper business teams (the tech team at the Guardian and Observer use it, we’ll say no more). Invented from the ashes of a failed game, the app has a beautiful interface and easy usability. It’s colourful and fun, and allows all sorts of content: gifs, PDFs, docs, video, to be shared in different “channels”. Think of it as the cooler, much hotter and less annoying version of Asana. Premium tiers allow deeper archive searching, analytics and guest access. Snapchat app logo.png Snapchat Free iOS, Android Snapchat has had some bad publicity over privacy concerns. The so-called “Snappening” was a hack exposing over 100,000 images. Often thought of as a gateway app into the world of nude selfies for teens, its real genius is in capturing the ephemera – sometimes beautiful, often hilarious – of everyday life. For me, this mostly consists of my sister sending me pictures of the cat, over which she has scrawled a comedy moustache or hat. If you’re someone who hates getting into long back-and-forths, a quick snap is a nice way to check in with a person without committing to a two hour text-marathon. Though video and picture chats disappear after 10 seconds, users can take screenshots. Now has ads. Cryptocat app logo.png Cryptocat Free iOS, Android Post-Snowden, most of us are concerned about privacy. Cryptocat is the brainchild of 23-year-old Nadim Kobeissi and allows users to send encrypted chats, including group conversations, over a simple interface. No account has to be set up. All that is needed is a conversation name, which others then access by knowing the name. If you want to send your mum stickers of pugs you won’t need Cryptocat, but for secure conversations it’s a good bet. There’s also a browser version. Kik app logo.png Kik Free iOS, Android, Windows Phone If you have a teen, they’re probably on Kik. It’s also popular with jihadis in Syria and Iraq (no, really). Both groups are attracted by the relative privacy Kik affords – it isn’t hooked up to a phone’s contacts (although this is an option). Accounts are set up with a username and email address instead. It’s the first messenger app with its own browser, and teens love that it’s tailored towards sharing YouTube videos, web pages, memes, sketches, photos and stickers, all in-app. Blackberry sued Kik for copyright infringement of its own messenger app (fight!), so it isn’t available on its phones. Recently acquired gif app Relay. Google Hangouts app logo.png Google Hangouts Free iOS, Android If you’re lucky enough to work in a fairly casual office, you might know the feeling of spending half the day on GChat. As more and more workplaces use Gmail, the sight and sound of pop-ups flashing “lunch?” is a common one. The smartphone app is therefore a good tool to keep in touch with colleagues whose number you might not have. The app supports animated stickers, pictures, location settings and voice and video group calls. Line app logo.png Line Free iOS, Android Despite completely aping WhatsApp’s logo, Japanese app Line offers rather more. Even Taylor Swift has a Line account, as do many brands and celebrities. The app became popular due to its VoIP service (allowing voice calls over the internet), as well as standard messaging fare, but its main difference is its inbuilt wall feature, a bit like Facebook, as well as various games. There are other quirky features – users can add each other via QR code or by simultaneously shaking their phones. MeowChat app logo.png MeowChat Free iOS, Android Meow is the 21st-century version of a pen pal scheme. It allows users to find others via their location. So, if you wanted to chat to someone in every corner of the world, you could do. I used Meow to get in touch with an Israeli soldier during the Gazan crisis. It would be a great resource to help meet people when travelling. It would work better, however, if you could enter a location via search instead of just zooming in on the map, tail-on-donkey style. The down side of the app is its “random” chat function. It’s basically Chatroulette, so expect dick pics aplenty. Ethan messaging app logo.pngEthan Free iOS We’ve all fallen in love with Siri at one point or another (right?), and now there’s Ethan. Ethan is the most unusual app on this list, given that it’s a chat between you and this one kid in New York called Ethan. It’s also the most useless, given that it’s a chat between you and this one kid in New York called Ethan. Think of it as the descendant of text service AQA (any questions answered), except AQA is manned by students earning minimum wage surfing Google, and Ethan is literally this one kid in New York called Ethan. His full name is Ethan Gliechtenstein, and he’s a real person. If you want to chat to another random New Yorker, there’s also Samantha.
