• App to watch: Whisper allows users to send messages anonymously and receive replies.
  Users post messages which are displayed as text superimposed over an image, similar to greeting cards.
   
• Dating apps are popping up left right and centre, but the newest one called Delightful is a game changer. Instead of trying to help single people hook up, Delightful aims to help couples plan better dates by providing users with access to an array of pre-planned dates that can be arranged in as little as two hours. Users simply choose which date they want, pay via the app and Delightful does the rest. Once a date is booked, a concierge handles details like reserving a table, looking up directions and arranging a car service.
   
• Instagram is growing faster than Twitter, Facebook and Pinterest combined - with Reddit and LinkedIn closely following behind. Read the full report here.
