Today's Story Highlights

Snapchat Rolls Out Ad-Friendlier Design
Snapchat recently began rolling out its redesigned Discover page. It now
displays images and headline previews of the content inside Discover
channels and Live stories on the Stories page. It previously displayed
only logos for publishers or events on those sites. Publishers now can
include an image and a headline to promote each day's story.

Microsoft and LinkedIn Go All In
Microsoft on Monday announced an agreement to buy LinkedIn, the world's
largest professional social media network, for $26.2 billion in cash.
The acquisition furthers Microsoft's effort to extend the breadth of its
content portfolio and to integrate its offerings into its platform of
cloud services. The companies jointly announced the deal.

Can Huawei Overtake Apple and Samsung?
Huawei says it is working hard to overtake Apple's iPhone and Samsung's
Galaxy line in the worldwide smartphone market. If you were to ask
anyone over the last eight years if that were possible, you would have
heard a resounding "no." The marketplace is changing, though, and
anything is now possible. Today Apple, Google and Samsung are enormous,
but the rate of smartphone growth has slowed.
