Ann: Thred Confirms its Platform Development Completion & Launch, page-30

Good to test 'test launch' in May.

Trying to catch up with previous ann.
Read up progress since 15 March 2016,

.

Microsoft selected Thred as partner, after a vetting 80 to 100 start-ups?
If Thred is not the 'Best of Breed" among peers, tell me who is? Anyone?

MS allows Thred access to data etc of O365 and Azure.
Why?

.
" Currently, there are more than 140 social media platforms catering for different styles, formats, languages and age groups.

Thred is attempting to bring them all together and Whittaker believes that as social media apps grow, so too can the company.

“The bigger the social media space gets, the bigger Thred can get,”
Whittaker said..."

Messaging is ubiquitous, but still not unified with users having multiple choices as to how they communicate, and whilst this gives them access, it creates confusion and clutter. Thred unifies communications, contacts and context seamlessly into one simple and powerful place.

Thred’s growth will be facilitated by a recently signed partnership with Microsoft (NASDAQ:MSFT).

The $388 billion global giant has been buying up in the social media space recently, with its most significant acquisition being the US$262 billion paid for LinkedIn.

Microsoft has selected Thred to integrate into Office 365 and its cloud based Azure platform, which gives Thred access to its developer tools and global community of 60 million small businesses.

Microsoft will provide Thred with financial and technical support and integrate Thred into its Azure platform.

Thred’s technology wipes the slate clean for existing social media users, and simplifies the whole user experience.
