Most young people prefer to go with other platforms such as Snapchat and this has slowed down Facebook’s growth the last couple of years.

Twitter is keen to ensure those who use its platform have the best experience possible. The company has been implementing a number of changes this year to make sure people engage with each other and thus spend more time on the site. The company desperately wants people to spend more time on its platforms if it is to convince advertisers that it makes sense for them to spend their ad revenue advertising on its platforms. The latest changes are also aimed at improving users experience with the first one allowing you to get notifications from people you follow and the…

Back in July, Infinix launched the Hot S smartphone in Nigeria. This was the first smartphone from the company to come with a fingerprint sensor and the company’s new customized UI, XOS. When the phone was launched in Nigeria, I reached out to my sources inside Infinix here in Kenya to ask the if the company has any plans to bring the phone into the country.
