What Honeycomb and Android Tablets Mean for Businesses

What Honeycomb and Android Tablets Mean for Businesses

By Aaron Levie on February 1, 2011

Google is set to announce their first tablet-oriented Android operating system, codenamed Honeycomb. At Box, we’ve been waiting for this moment since we started seeing significant traction with our apps for both the iPad and Android phones, with nearly 400,000 downloads to date. With the introduction of Honeycomb, we’ll begin working immediately on a tablet-centric version of our Box Android app.
How did we get to this point?

Well, Well, SAP is now on Google Apps MarketPlace. Ok, Just StreamWork. But Still:-)

By Zoli Erdos on December 6, 2010

Software Marketing Pranks

Software Marketing Pranks

By Zoli Erdos on October 26, 2010

I envy software marketing types.  They get to stay kids forever: pull pranks and even get paid for it.:-) Today’s example comes courtesy of TechCrunch: PayPal competitor WePay dropped a 600lbs ice block at the entrance of the Paypal developer conference.  They got chased away and Moscone security removed the ice block.   My question: who […]

Box Takes on Desktop Sync, the Space Gets Ever More Crowded

By Ben Kepes on June 10, 2010

I’ve written before about a number of desktop sync products I use – these products help me to keep my life organized across multiple devices (see my Syncplicity posts for example). The fact is that, for me at least, I live on three different laptops, a desktop from time-to-time and one or two mobile devices […]

Changing the Game, Inside and Outside of the Box (and The Final Frontier)

By Ben Kepes on April 1, 2010

Exciting times at box.net headquarters. Yesterday I had a briefing with Aaron Levie, Co-founder and CEO, Michael Smith, Product Manager, Mobile and Sean Lindo, Marketing Communications Manager. That’s a lot of heavyweights for a simple briefing and especially something so apparently subtle as a new mobile app. Yes, box.net were demoing their new iPad application […]

Crowdsourcing for the Stars

Crowdsourcing for the Stars

By Ben Kepes on March 29, 2010
